More than an Image
No Filter.
More than just a recognizable hashtag on social media.
Use this to prove a point?
What is there to prove?
That my skin is darker than the filter that I've used before...
Or I can get more likes on this particular photo.
I am more than just an image.
I am knowledge.
Not just the words on a page in a book...
But the meaning behind those words.
I am Beautiful.
Not just the girl in the photo...
But the girl inside.
Oscar Wilde once said,
"Most people are other people.
Their thoughts are someone else's opinion.
Their life's a mimicry.
Their passion's a quotation."
I am myself.
My thoughts are my opinions.
My life is my life.
My passions are my values.
I have no filter.
I am more than an image.
