The Real Me


The real me is not as perfect

As I make it out to be.

The real me wears glasses

Because my sight is far from good.

The real me has wavy hair

That is no where straight.

The real me has freckles

Making me look younger.

The real me has acne

From stress and more.

The real me has

No filters.

No makeup.

The real me is not perfect

And never will be.
