Love Yourself

February 12, 2018

Dear little girl,

It's okay, no need to fear.

You were meant to be here.

Your contemplation and hesitation

Don't let it cloud you; don't let it drown you.

Just do what you do; be you.

One day you'll have all the fun.

One day you won't have to run.

Dear young teen girl,

I know you hate to be seen.

It's okay; no need to cry

Or ask yourself why

The girl you sit next to

Makes your heart beat through you -

Just hold your head high;

You don't have to die.

Dear teen boy,

It's okay, don't worry.

No need to say you're sorry.

You've waited years too long;

Donn't let fear tell you wrong.

Open your heart without fear,

Take your hand and wipe that tear.

Dear young man,

You've made it so far;

Always at war with your mind

You unwind

The path of life

Is like a knife

Cutting you deep,

But your scars you will keep.

Wear them proud.

Speak your mind loud,

And smile;

Life has been worthwhile.

With love,

The future you're made of.
