Selfie - ::Published::

Unfiltered Unfettered 
We choose how we see
Ourselves in the mirror
Of eternity 

Don't let the world shape
Who we need you to be
Inside you..a hero
Busting out, to be free 

The click of the shutter.
A dangerous game.
No life is defined
By a boundary or frame.. 

When the people ahead
Flick through albums of you
They will know who you were
And your story.. so true. 

Choose hope, love and justice 
Be a person so kind
That the image you leave
Never fades over time.
