Dear World.


This is my letter to the world who never wrote to me.

The world who looked at me with judgement.

Who bullied me, gossiped about me, and never let me be.

I want you to know that you took away my smile.

You took away my voice.

You took away my confidence and tossed me like a file.

But you won't take away my hope.

You can be cruel, world, but you can be sweet as well.

I trust you'll come around at the end of my rope.

You have made me to fight.

Harder than I ever have.

But you'll never take away my light.

The one that I was given at birth.

By the great creator above.

For He was the only one who knew my worth.
