Perfectly Imperfect


Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter

why do they all have filters?

To help hide our natural beauty

turning on filters is a daily duty.

 

Sometimes i shave my legs and sometimes i won't.

Sometimes i comb my hair, sometimes i don't.

Brown skin, brown eyes standing 5 feet 8 inches tall

i don't see it but some say im built like a Barbie Doll

blinded by our imperfection most of all.

 

With our inner beauty we all disconnect

i am perfectly imperfect.
