Strong until I meet your gaze
Your eyes
Your hands
Pull me out of me
And into what you see
Now I’m left somewhere in between
Slipping away from myself
Into your creations
Identity fractured, scattered
But I am strong
Am I
Forming my image or being formed
Am I beautiful
Or made to look beautiful by others
Somewhere I got lost between the lines
Of who I am
And who you see me to be
Or who I see you to see
What a bleak way to be me.

This was an old portrait of mine by @eddienew_photography reworked by @flowsofly
It reminded me of this journal entry that I wrote a few years ago when I was frustrated modeling.

A lot of it still resonates but in new ways now. It makes me wonder,

How authentically do people show themselves on social media? Do we share who we are or do we try to be the person that we think we should share?
What parts don’t we share?
Why?
Does it make us more uncomfortable in them?
What about the messy, the angry, the confused, the shy, the sad, the lonely, the feeling like shit...
Does not sharing them and not seeing them on social media make us feel worse when we are living them because they don’t seem socially acceptable?
