I Don't Want to Hide
Location
I don't wear makeup to hide,
I wear it because I want to.
I choose to not wear makeup
not to hide,
not to be seen,
but because I want to.
My beauty does not come from makeup or lack there of,
my beauty comes from myself.
I don't care what others say
about the occasional blemish
or my acne scars.
I am who I am.
Not because of what you say,
not because of the products I use,
but from myself.
I don't want to hide,
so I won't.
I will continue to be myself
and make my own decisions.
No one can tell me I'm ugly.
No one can tell me I'm fake.
No one can tell me lies.
I am who I am.
And I will not hide.
