Dear Me
Dear me,
When you lay down in our old bed
holding tightly to our old bear
eyes closed
dreaming to be anywhere but there
remember that it won’t always be this way
When doors slam and you know what’s coming next
you turn out the lights
muttering under your breath
remember that one day you’ll get away
I promise
When momma starts to cry
just kiss her and say it’ll be alright
tell her daddy changes everyday
and one day he’ll be a different man
when your baby brother is born
hold him close
protect him from the war
one day he’ll need you to shield him
a stranger will come to live with you
and he’ll bring chaos
oh sweet little me
always trust your heart
grow a thick skin
don’t mind what everyone will say
you’ll feel trapped
but don’t give it to what is easy
don’t trust that boy (you know which one)
if you do, he’ll make you into a monster
much worse than what lurks under your bed
If you make a wrong choice
just remember what Scarlette always says
“I won’t think about that today, I’ll think about it tomorrow”
Pick yourself up
I know it’s hard
don’t let people use you
make you into their slave
Dear me,
Years from now you’ll look back
all the pain of yesterday will flood your head
but no matter
pain makes you who you are
just don’t let it demonize you
put your big girl panties on, not the lace ones
you’re no whore
no matter what they say
I believe in you
When your fear overrides your thoughts
scream loud as you can
“YOU CAN’T TOUCH ME! NO ONE CAN!”
The devil waits for you everywhere
remember to say your prayers
thank the Father you’re alive
don’t walk away from him too far
you’ll get sucked into a hole of destruction
Dear me,
I’ll write again soon
let this message sink in
when you’re ready i’ll return
look in the mirror
repeat after me
“you are kind, you are loved, you are BEAUTIFUL.”
let no one tell you otherwise
there may not be a prince charming
but one day a man will come along
he’ll break your heart but in the end he’ll show you
TRUE LOVE
p.s
Stay Strong
love,
ME
