Who am I?


Seconds go by like days .

Without me being eligible to say how  i really feel.
Say how i feel with a selfie. 
Is what i am doing very healthy? 
I am a seventeen year old girl.
Without my makeup and selfies i am not a pearl.
I would have no say if i went even a day.
What is life if you have no say? 
Life is really short. 
Should i even play a sport.
I have no say during school.
But am i just a fool stuck in this  uncool world.
Filters are like life vest without them we would not survive. 
We all need the drive to continue to go on another day.
I wish i was young so my life still revovled around the need to play. 
Without all the make up and stuff I am just a girl living in this world.
Fighting everyday just trying not being twirled from place to place.
Life is one big mistake.
I wish i did not need the things that make me. 
But without the make up I can not be.
I would just be an ugly girl.
Looking for a way to not be thrown into a big swirl.
 I would not change who I am. 
But I could not live without my glam. 
Sound is something we need.
Without we could not be.
