To Be Heard
Without that FLASH in my face
Without the MAKE-UP stuck on my skin
That is when you SEE the Authentic ME
No DOUBLE TAP required to know I am LIKED
Just the simple ME I am to be
No FILTERS to hide the little flaws
A girl hiding behind a SCREEN
A person like any other
There is more than my PICTURE
Or even my SCREEN NAME
I am just a PERSON
Wanting to be HEARD
Even if that means just through a quick SWIPE
Through a SOCIAL MEDIA WALL

I am a foster youth on my path to succeed. I am half white and half Mexican, which makes me Whitexican. I am the youngest of three. I love people and putting a smile on their face.
