Dear future child..
One day, if it's 3 AM and you find yourself in a world of complete despair. Please don't turn to strangers on the internet for solace as i did, please climb into my bed and i will hold you until the demons sleep. If it is Thursday morning and you're too sad to move,i wont force you to. I will buy ice cream and we will watch your favorite TV show and i will remind you of your importance. If you feel like you have no purpose, I will remind you that you were created entirely with love and every pain you feel, i feel as well. When you're sure you can't go on anymore, I will tell you that when i was a teenager i searched for peace at the bottom of a ***** bottle chased by a bottle of pain killers, but years later when you were placed into my arms in the delivery room, I realized you were the reason I've been holding on for so long... and you saved me. So if you ever think about grabbing that ***** bottle, put it down. We will get into the ***** bottle, put it down. We will get into the car and I will drive until the sky turns magenta. I will show you how the sun rises, encouraging you to rise too. Sweetheart I refuse to be unaware of your sufferings, as my mother was to mine.
My future child..
