Angle and lighting-
I like my how my face looks today,
My hair looks nice like this,
But only sometimes-
I think-
I'm lying to myself,
Take away the camera!
Please!
Because it's lying to me.
Don't get me wrong,
It's the truth.
Angle and lighting-
Today I have cheekbones,
Tomorrow I won't,
I don't,
Not usually.
Just take it away- please!
The lies,
They hurt,
But only slightly-
I don't feel the pain,
I think,
Maybe it doesn't exist.
Click!
But not below the neck,
God forbid!
Turn the camera off!
Before they see.
Please.
