I Am


I am a girl of a deceased dad,

I am a girl of divorced parents,

I am a who who wears makeup to hide the tears,

I am a girl who has a filter to hide the pain.

 

I am a girl without a filter,

who is beautiful & unique,

I am a girl without a filter

who is the same as you,

I am a girl without a filter

who has dreams and ideas,

I am a girl without a filer,

who is human, just like you.

 

I am a girl of a million hardships,

I am a girl of a thousand emotions,

I am a girl of a hundred words,

and I am a girl of one filer.

 

I am a girl without a filter

who has a heart,

I am a girl without a filter

who deserves love,

I am a girl without a filter

who deserves to be seen,

I am a girl without a filter

who deserves to not want to die,

 

I am a girl of a non-existent filer,

I am a girl of a hundred scars,

I am a girl of her own canvas,

I am a girl of her own story,

And I do not need a filter.
