A letter to myself
eric sims Mar 2021
Dear younger self I know you may not understand what you’re going through. I know at  times you think no one loves you but you are loved I know it’s hard growing up without a mom or a dad but as we get older it’ll get easier. I know you’re only seven years old and you’re like what the ****  did I do to deserve this nothing you did nothing wrong it is not your fault and I know sometimes you feel like it’s your fault that’s your mother and father are not together but it’s not your fault younger me.I know sometimes you cry yourself to sleep wishing you Would

die but that’s not the way you have great things in your future and I just want you to know If I knew then what I know. I would’ve done a lot of things different I know now you’re probably wondering what does all this mean in due time I will tell youI know by now you’re eight years old and you are starting to feel yourself you are Becoming rebellious And continuous thoughts of suicide because you feel like your father doesn’t love you your mother is Nowhere around!!! I know the feeling that you have the pain the anger the hurt the hatred the betrayal and you have all right to feel those things but I do not want you to let those things fuel you trust me I know younger me you will grow up hating the world and that’s not a good feeling it is now Thanksgiving night 1998 you have just gotten hit by a car and all you want more than anything in the world is to have your mommy by your side you hate her for the fact that she’s not around you hate your father because you feel like he wasn’t watching you at that moment when that car hit you for a split second you just want to die because you feel like there will be no more pain. But that is not true if you were to die that night there would have been so much things that you will have never got to see or do I’m not saying our life is perfect but it will get better over time & to even go back a little bit farther you’re hurt and pain started way before your mother and father split up you were hurts when your uncle Jimmy Darrell Sims passed away the day before Christmas one year later the day before Christmas your mother drops you off at your grandmothers house it tells you she will be back and she never came back. And the ****** you up growing up your life was hard you experienced a lot of things depression loneliness suicidal thoughts not being loved I can understand how you turn to a monster Younger self we are not perfect and I’m talking to you to fix the older us this world is a dark place. Well let’s continue this journey you get hit by the car Thanksgiving night all you want is your mommy and she’s nowhere to be foundWhile you’re in the hospital people are trying to reach out to her but no one can contact her that really Crushed your soul you grew more colder more angrier you did not talk to your mother until a week after you got out of the hospital on top of that you were never the Flyers kid and when you were fly you had to work for
It Your life was a mess at the age of nine years old you had your first asthma attack and yet again all you want it was your mommy. It’s not like you didn’t have love but it wasn’t the love that you were looking for you wanted the love of your mother do you want it the love of your father but instead. You felt like and still to this day feel likeYour father loves your cousin Delmar more than you as a grown owner your hatred became more

The love the hate the pain
eric sims Nov 2018
The love the hate the pain. I said I loved you but instead I hurt you I said I'll be there but it's not turn my back on you I said I needed you would turn my back on you I said we will be together forever and then I played you those are the things that you want to hear out my mouth those are the things that happened in this relationship we had love the love was so sweet when we had the love you smell for days we talked for hours the pain the pain came when we started going through anguish we just couldn't get it right fussing and fighting and arguing with each other all the time the Haight the hate came on each other's behinds when I started doing some wild **** you started doing some wild **** and then the hate was grown but now I'm sitting here saying to myself at least she admitted one thing that you know it was kind of spiteful because do it all man you know it and I know it you can say it wasn't enough money you can say it wasn't **** but through it all I gave you everything always whether it was enough for not for some people that's all that matters to show a motherfuker that you're when I'm down and I'm in the mud I can give you everything I have so just imagine were up and we're winning you going to get it ten times more I just don't understand why you couldn't understand that the love the pain the hate I tried to give you love but it's that I gave you pain I tried to give you happiness but then I gave pain I tried to make you smile but I often made you cry I don't understand why but I look to myself I didn't this it can't be rightyou say you hate me I know that's not true hate me is love and love means hate I just hurt you so much. That's the word to say I know I'm not perfect I'm not the best man but please understand I would have gave my right hand for you cuz I Was Your Man you were my lady and I was your man you was my rock and I was your roller I was too blunt and you was delighted I was the gun and you was the holster you was the Braves and I was the body I was the arms and you was The Lacs we complete each other at times I will say something and you will finish my sentence you will say something and I will finish your sentence but now it's like **** all that **** man what's the point of you going to love it I'm sitting here hurting and you don't give a fuckthere's never been a time maybe once or twice why I felt pain and you felt the same pain that I felt but I've always thought you're ******* hang but I guess I'm a man so I'm not supposed to show emotions I guess I'm a mesomorph not supposed to care I guess I'm a man so I don't have heart aches and pains I guess it's a man I can't hurt CelinaI tried to give you everything but I guess I gave you nothing sometimes I look at my life and I feel just so disgusted I gave this woman the best things in my life as you said it wasn't good enough she don't talk to me my whole life and said I wasn't good enough you played me out like I'm a fool but I am not good enough come on man this is crazy I guess I am not good enough

Love Hurts
eric sims Nov 2018
In love you can feel as high as the sky and sometimes you can feel as low as the ground Joy and Pain. Are just some of the things that  happen when you feel love and hurt when a person hurts you feel like dirt but when a person loves u it can feel  as warm as a Sunday

To a very special friend
eric sims Mar 2019
From the first time I seen you I can't even lie I said **** who is this girl right here I tried to get close I didn't think you noticed but I'm so glad that you did the conversations that we have are cool and real you're beautiful in every sense of the fashion I'm just keeping it real from the first time I hugged you I was like **** you smell so good and when you held my hand in so many words I'm just trying to say I'm cool with being your friend but one day I hope I can be your man
eric sims Jan 2019
Why does love have to be so hard why can't it be easy it shouldn't be this hard this should be a little bit more simpler at times like a walk in the park just holding hands talking it doesn't have to be so hard when you love someone it should just be easy after a while you should be able to finish each other's sentences but loving me is hard I'm not easy to love but if youunderstand my love I will give you a conditional love

To a special friend
eric sims Apr 2019
This is just a short little poem  to brighten your day going   I think about you like crazy since the day I I laid eyes on you I said to myself just maybe this could one day be my lady the conversations we have so real it's crazy I can't believe you gave me the opportunity to show you but now that I showed you I won't let it go to wast
eric sims Jan 2019
When you feel like you can't go on and you feel like your life is being torn apart can you ask God for forgiveness but you don't hear anything back. When you feel like the whole world is against you and you know you did your best but still no one can understand the pain that you have you feel like what you have done goes unnoticed the love you had has Venus and is no more when you look into the mirror and you hate the man you see and you realized that a chainsaw needs to be made in order for you to truly be free. I'm a broken Man who needs to be fixed I know my wrongs I know my rights I'm not perfect but I'm perfectly imperfect and that's fine for me
eric sims Feb 2019
I don't know you like that but the conversations that we have make me want to get to know you even more I haven't even seen you face-to-face yet but I can't wait for the day that I see you I can't wait for the day I look you in your eyes I see your beautiful face I know I'm not your man yet but hopefully one day I can be but until then I'll accept your friendship you give me a feeling I haven't had in a long time this might be special

Life is funny
eric sims Nov 2018
I grew up my whole life wondering why my mother never loved me I grew up my whole life wondering why my mother left me. The scars from not having a mother made it hard for me to love a woman I lost my best friend because I never had the love of my mother I hope that one day she can forgive me for not being the man I'm supposed to be but life is funny

As the wind blows and I wipe the last tears from my eyes I lights my last blunt I think to myself what could have been I lost the love of my life my best friend because of one mistake I know I'm only human and every human makes mistakes but if I can go back and change the hands of time I would change things my whole life I've been looking for my soulmate and I finally found her and I do a whole bunch of stupid things and now I lost her I feel like my heart has been torn out my chest and kick through upright for three points my heart is hurting because not only have I lost my best friend but I scared my children I became the man I never wanted to be I became just like my father
eric sims Mar 2019
I thought you were my soulmate I thought you were the one I try my best to be the one I know that I failed you in certain ways and that really kills me insidethe last time I looked you in your eyes all I seen was pain hurt and lies this **** can't be real I was supposed to be your Superman you were supposed to be my Superwoman blood test that can't be it hurts to let go I know I have to I hurt you too bad so now I have to let go you gave me a chance and I ****** up the pack I'm like a crack addict trying to run back the pain that I caused you is so unbearable I don't like the man I became when I look into the mirror sometimes I ask myself who am I and I know you may not care and this is not a love letter this is simply my goodbyes a heartfelt apology for the world to see I'm sorry for the things I did to you we have our names tattooed on each other we were supposed to be one you gave me my daughter I was supposed to give you your son but I ****** up
