Dear younger me,
First and foremost, I am sorry for what is going to happen to you
I wish I could prepare you for what is coming
The pain is going to shatter You
I am so sorry for what life will throw at you
The world is unkind, you were never ready
You had to be an adult at an early age, that's crazy
Please, don't fear the world, make it your stage
Free your mind, don't let overthinking keep you in a cage
Hang in there, the self-doubt will eventually fade
I know you've been abandoned, I'm sorry you have trust issues
If I could, I would send you a box full of tissues
But so much is at stake, we need to stop making excuses
I keep having flashbacks of the things we shouldn't remember
You tried to take you own life once, I'm glad you failed
Dear younger me,
I wish you could see us now
Trust me, you would be proud
Life might have turned our smile upside down
But those were just setbacks, fix your crown
Life taught you how to swim, do you see why we didn't drown?
Don't regret the journey, it made us
Life tested us more than other people, for me, that's a plus
I know you're tired, you can rest now
We are okay, at last
Things did get better
I am sorry I took long to send you this letter
