Without My Filters
Location
Without my filters
I am something no one has ever seen.
That is the most scary thing ever.
Maybe someone,
Someday,
Will be able to understand me in my most natural state
but I have not met them yet.
I hide behind the filters,
On my mouth,
On my body
just like one hides behind their clothing.
Maybe someday,
Sometime,
I will show everyone who I really am,
but will they be ready?
Am I ready for my true self.
I don’t have my support yet to hold me up when I am beaten to the ground.
Grinded up like a measly little bug.
I am not a bug.
I am me.
I need to respect myself.
I will respect myself
I will respect myself because I am beautiful without my walls of filters.
I will respect myself because I met that person now,
They understand me in my natural state.
They are ready and I am ready.
I can fly away now like a bird.
Without my filters
I am something no one has ever seen.
That is the most beautiful thing ever.
