#nofilter


Layers upon layers and layers of me,

So much so that no one can really see.

Outside I just want everyone to let me be,

But inside is joyful and full of glee.

 

I like to be kind and I like to read,

But I don't exactly know what I really need.

I'm trapped in a shell and want to be freed,

When I break out all my problems will recede.

 

So without the filter I can be who I want.
