The Façade of Myself
Location
In a building
a curtain is placed
to cover up what is broken.
Sometimes it covers
what is yet to come.
With myself,
a filter is used
to cover up imperfections
sometimes it covers
the things that make me beautiful.
Nothing is perfect,
but everyone is beautiful.
In a building,
the wind whooshes through,
echoing in the empty halls.
The wind also
emphasizes the sound of the lonely.
With myself,
with nothing to block my words,
I can cause sunshine to make the flowers bloom,
other times,
the rain will come.
But rain also
helps the flowers grow.
In a building,
people point out
that the structure is incomplete.
They discuss
what the structure may become.
With myself,
I point out,
that my being is incomplete.
I decide
who I will become.
The rest of the world,
cannot influence our decisions.
My filter to the world
blocks the things I don't accept
and the things I don't want to hear.
But even the strongest filters,
can still be broken.
Without my facade,
I am simply myself
the girl who wants
to make the change
to become something greater.
Behind the façade a girl shines
waiting for the world to notice.
