Bona fide


Following what society thinks is right

I try to alter my camera light.

This will create the most optimal picture,

And allow me to avoid the tedious stricture.

Pictures are only one side of me, 

Filters and angles are not all to see.

Being as silent as a mute person, 

People's view on me only seems to worsen.

So while my thoughts are not said aloud,

Just know that what they are would make you proud.
