Covered up no more
The shower pours down from above washing away the days pain
the days makeup starts running down the drain
Your face is free
and your pores can finally breathe.
You walk around the house and see your old photos
what happened to me you ask yourself
is this what happens as I grow older.
The photos of me that i see no longer resemble me
They resemble me trying to be what I already am.
PERFECT.
Flaws just make me Unique
that one mole that seems imperfect is me.
I am no longer constricted by the makeup that once took up my face.
People can now see the me that I have fallen in love with.
The me that I once tore up with words and blades. The me that is no longer filtered by society.
