Filter me

Please if you must,
put a filter on your photo,
if it helps to ease your doubt. 
But to the rest of the world,
you are beautiful,
there’s not a single flaw in your pout.
 
By all means,
put a filter on your past,
if it helps to relieve the pain.
But don’t go forgetting,
all things beautiful,
only grow when there’s rain.
 
And if you really need to,
go Filter out the bad part,
But you know put on a show,
when the world looks,
to find it hidden in your art.

Put a filter on your life,
and show them,
only what you allow them to see.
But don’t you go forgetting,
you are always enough,
just simply let yourself be.
 
But never must you forget, the most important part.
Whatever you need to put a filter on, please don’t let it be your timeless heart.

Being Me

I love this, Sam.

By all means,
put a filter on your past,
if it helps to relieve the pain.
But don’t go forgetting,
all things beautiful,
only grow when there’s rain.

Those were my favourite words in this.  And soooo very true! 

My god how we all wear painted smiles or hide behind masks of varying kinds! And yes even those filter apps! We all need to be more "real".... Real is less complicated and to be less complicated is to be happy x

Mind Ache

The trap of the mind,
Hunters caged prey,

Stuck in a wasps nest,
