Through The Lens

I see how people are self-conscious

How people try to be confident

I see how society brings us down

How people say hurtful things

How people think there is a certain way to look

People try to stay strong

They hold their head High

They ignore the whispers

They ignore society

That doesn’t last long

Society gets to them

It gets to everyone at some point

They break down

They change who they are

What makes them different

They don't understand

 That they are already flawless

I want to speak out against these changes

I don’t

Because I would be a hypocrite

I broke too

I tried to be who I wasn't

I didn't like it

I didn't like what society viewed as flawless

I didn't like how I changed

I realized that I was already flawless

That I was different

I was myself

I now look at myself not through society's lens

But I look through my own lens

And I like what I see now
