A Letter to Myselves
Dear Me,
I hate the way you look.
I detest the way you dress.
If you were to ask me what I think, I’d say your life was a mess.
Dear Me,
Good job on that test.
Great job in that class.
I never doubted you had it in you, to get a good grade and pass.
Dear Me,
You don’t deserve her love.
You don’t deserve his respect.
Was there anything but pain that you came to expect?
Dear Me,
I promise it’ll get better.
I assure you, you’ll find happiness.
The world will finally glimmer, and it will take your last breath.
Dear Me,
I hate you.
I hate me.
Leave me alone and let me be!
Dear Me,
I can’t love you.
I can’t hate you.
You are me. I am you.
From,
You
