Behind the Filter

Location

I am me.

I am not strengthened by others' flaws

Nor am I weakened by their assets.

I do not wish to give them false ideas

about who I really am.

I am me.

A shady filter

A new p

              e

                r

                  s

                p

             e

          c

             t

                i

                  v

                e

Or perfect lighting

Could never capture who I really am.

I am me.

And I intend to show the world

My own image.

I intend to show how fantastic BOLD and wonderful I really am behind that filter.

And I know I can do this because

I am me.
