Behind the Filter

Vignette, grey-scale, sepia, vintage,

always hiding behind the filter.

Air-brush, inkwell, face bright, spot healing, 

feeling pretty behind the filter.

Social media filled with thousands of pictures,

I don't even recognize myself behind the filter.

 

No make-up, sweatpants, hair pulled back,

that is who I am with #nofilter.

Feel free to show the real me,

realize this girl is beautiful with #nofilter.

Take a picture, leave it be,

post it, be proud, #nofilter.
