#NOfilter!!!

Insecurites ring like a phone call

I'm too small, too weak

I recall those tounges tearing me down.

Online I look around. 

 

My profile is filtered

Leaving a footprint of a legacy.

One never explored 

Because I don't want them to see me. 

 

When I'm locked up in isolation though,

In the midst of only my breath and only my flow,

Caged in with impenetrable walls,

I release a version of me only I know.

 

A diferent energy is in the air, 

Therefore a new spectrum arises

With more color and more flare. 

No more masks. No more disguises. 

 

My flaws and blemishes are exposed.

All negativity is decomposed.

Every one of my imperfections 

Reflects the refraction of perfection. 

 

My ears are plugged,

But this version of me is unplugged.

Every tone singing my anthem

Resonating in my sanctum.

 

I sail past the stars and the galaxies;

I'm finally where I'm supposed to be. 

I defy gravity and many different laws.

No more society to point out my flaws. 

 

My eyes are closed and my euphoric stage collapses.

It's time to face the world as dreams burn to ashes. 

Anxiously i will wait to return to my paradise. 

No more filter. 

No more bitterness. 

No more lies.
