Future Me

Dear Future Me,

     Don't let your past dictate your future

     It can only hurt you later in time 

     Your past is like a torn suture 

     But work hard and you will be fine

     I'm sure you will be a fine man

     The way you were raised tells me so

     Remember your training and stay on the right track

     Do these things that I know you can

    Find happiness in something

    Your life will amount to more than nothing

    Strive for the best things in life

    Do this and you avoid all life's strife

   Remember this if nothing else

   Have faith in whatever you do

   Your future will be as bright as the rising sun

    Take this from the one who knows you like no other, You

   With Much Love and Repsect

        Past James Batiste IV
