I wish

February 6, 2018

Dear junior self,

I wish you saw the beauty

in yourself.

I wish you saw the lies

that were put into your head.

I wish you saw the havoc

that you created.

I wish that you didn’t fall so deep

you couldn’t come back.

I wish you went out with your friends.

I wish you created memories.

I wish you took pictures.

I wish you saw how much this disease

consumed you before it was too late.

I wish you saw the beauty

in yourself.

I wish more than all that this didn’t

happen to you.
