Unfiltered

I've always been funny, clumsey

Sensitive and smart those four

words have defined me from the start

Love and compassion soon worked their

way in but that was when I was a kid

Soon my teenage days came around

and everything began to spiral down

My funniness became stern, my

clumsiness became a bad habit

My sensitivity became a joke and

My smartness became my weakness

So I turned to something that I thought

would help, it embraced me like I was its own

Little did I know I had just sold my soul

The filter erased my insecurities 

I hid behind it for a while 

And piece by piece I became that filter

Finally I said enough was enough

Teenage years were tough but the

filter was rough so away with it

and everyone else

Wirhout the filter I'm free to be me

Funny, clumsey, sensitive and smart

and I can't forget love and compassion

Which will always work their way into my heart 

This is me Unfiltered
