dear past me
I’m sorry I was so ******* you
I didn’t know it was going to turn out this way
you made things really difficult for me
it took me a long time to forgive you for that
but I think I’m ready
I’ve accepted that what happened to you
wasn’t your fault
the way the system failed you
wasn’t your fault

dear present me
I’m so grateful for all that you’ve done
the way you’ve turned life around and strived
I’m proud of you I know you need to hear that
you’re amaze me and you’re not perfect yet
but you’re healing and you’re trying to get there
what happened to you shaped you and I hope
even if it takes you your whole life or being
you will flip the script and use it constructively

dear future me
I hope you’re happy and secure
if money is still a struggle for you don’t lose hope
hold on to every little thing you have
because in the end they are what matter most
