Dear me,
Look at yourself.
Look at the setbacks you've had,
Look at all the mistakes you've made,
Look at all the bad days you went through,
Look at your past.
OPEN YOUR EYES!
Look at how far you've come.
Look at your scars.
Despite all the pain you've went through.
Despite how many times your darkness has consumed you.
Despite everything you went through.
You're still here.
You fought through the battles that others couldn't see.
I am so proud of you.
Keep fighting, don't give up.

" I know you so well "
if you knew me so well,
you would be able to see my pain.
" I know you so well "
if you knew me so well,
tell me what my future is
" I know you so well "
If you knew me so well,
you would see the progress I've made.
If you knew me so well,
your words wouldn't be filled with doubts.
It's my life, not yours.
It's my emotions, not yours.
It's my thoughts, not yours.
It's my goals, not yours.
You don't know my past, my present or future,
You don't know what I'm feeling,
You don't know what I'm thinking,
and you most certainly don't know my purpose in life.
The questions are mine to figure out and answer,
not yours.
Your words have no power against me.

I don’t need your permission to love
I don’t need your permission to think
I don’t need your permission to fight what’s best for me.
I don’t need your permission to heal
what you can not see.
I am going to blossom into a warrior
& shine like never before.
I will learn from my mistakes,
without your stares & your doubts.

It’s time to water my own plants,
It’s time to grow.
It’s time to bandage up
my own wounds,
It’s time to heal.
It’s time to face my fears,
It’s time to fight.
I’m done sitting around,
I’m done waiting to be saved.
I’m saving myself,
I’m fighting my own battles.

You’re running,
you’re running
and you’re running.
You’ve missed
so many stop signs.
You have so many
bruises, cuts
and scratches.
You’re in so much pain
but you’re so detached
with yourself that
you don’t feel it.
You & I both know
this isn’t
the first race you did.
However you left yourself
behind, once again.
Please slow down and rest...

I haven’t seen you or talked to you,
for years.
I froze when I saw you.
You were the first
that I truly loved
that I cared for the most
that I appreciated the most
& valued.
You were the first
that gave me a taste of
what loving someone,
what appreciating someone
& valuing someone felt like.
But in the end,
you were the one
that made me feel worthless,
invisible & never enough.
Maybe I’m giving you too much credit.
Maybe I was delusional this whole time.
Maybe you weren’t the first
But you were the one
who impacted me the most.
You taught me how to love & hate
at the same time.

We are growing into
a world of empty promises,
a world of dishonesty,
a world of trust issues,
a world of backstabbers,
& a world of one-sided efforts.
We're losing our motivation
of pursuing relationships & friendships.
We're sabotaging the progress
we're making to better our lives.
I don't know if this is my pessimistic thinking
or its reality.
Whatever it is, it's sad.

You know my past
you've seen my past
but you've never been in my shoes.
You know my past
but you don't know my present or future.
You've only seen what I wanted you to see.
So don't act like you're me or my maker.
Your words were good intentions
but the message pierced through my heart
with doubts.
You've seen my scars
but you never felt my pain.
You're you & i'm me
I'm the author of my own story.
I'm writing my own life how i want it to turn out.
I'm doing things my way, not your way.

We are our own backstabbers
We sabotage ourselves
We are our own liars
We can’t face the truth
We can’t face our demons
So we tell ourselves we’re okay.
But
we’re also our own healers
We’re our own soldiers
We’re our own climbers.
We heal, we grow, we fight
and we keep moving forward.
