A Letter To The Little Girl I Used To Be
Hello...
I hope your doing well
and by "well" i mean i hope
your not crying into your pillow
leaving the red inside your eyes
and the stains on your small soft cheeks
I hope your not screaming silently
as your fists make contact with the
hard, cold walls.
creating purple blush on the
top of your knuckles
I hope you will soon know
that all the people you love
will not always feel the same
and your heart will be like broken shards of a mirror.
but no matter how much you put together those pieces,
you'll never see yourself again.
And much later on,
you'll be faced with a rush of thoughts
one night
you'll think that the world is your enemy
and the end is your friend
I know all this sounds as if
your life is full of
sad movie scenes and heartbreak
but I want to tell you that
There will be times when
you are truly doing well.
you're heart will be full of
a light
brighter than the stars you cry to.
And instead of screaming,
you'll laugh softly
and your hands wil not be forced
into a shape of a fist
and there will not be pain rushing through you
You'll soon know that even if some people don't love you
there will be people who make your life
so much less painful
and who will be there through
the flames of your journey's.
If those thoughts come to you one night
you might think that bottle of pills
is your new solution to a better life.
But, im here to tell you
It didn't help create your tears
into smiles
or your broken heart
into a mirror
So please know that
the world can be your friend if you let it
and the end can also be your friend if you let it
but im begging you,
dont let it.
