Un-Masking
Wipe away the puddy
molded to your face
to reveal your flawless skin
Give your eyes a break
from those contacts
to show your warmth
Let your hair run wild
curling how ever it pleases
to frame and consume your face
Look in that mirror
with your head high
your shoulders back
and a smile spread accross your cheeks
Believe you are beautifully unique
because you are.

Like everyone else, I've gone through my hardships and I know there are more to come. I've lost friends whom were close to me, I've suffered with grades in school, and I have my own family issues. I used to write with a pessimistic perspective, as you'll see in my earlier writings, but people change with time. I don't want to view what has happened and what will happen through a dark haze. I now write with a more hopeful attitude despite if I'm sad or angry. By reading these, you're getting to know the inner me and though I encourage constructive criticism, for that reason, please be honest and kind. Thank you and, by the way, it's nice to meet you! ;)
