#NoFilter


The beauty of the forgotten

love yourself,

or your beauty within will start to rotten

hug yourself,

like you're wearing the softest of cotton

kiss yourself,

like what your daddy did when you was little... often.

See beauty comes in different shapes and different sizes,

wearing makeup will just disguise it.

#NoFilter needed to revise it

just be yourself to entice it.

Shun those who hate or undermine it

for you are beautiful

(if you needed to be reminded).
