Dear self, I'm sorry your spirit is broken A firefly trapped in a jar yearning to be set free I'm sorry for your sorrows They're starting to get to thee You were meant to shine for everyone But they are selfish and want you all to themselves I'm sorry no one understands the dreams you want to achieve I'm sorry you can't get anyone to believe Can't they see you drowning? Drowning in your own tears Dying in this hell your living is one of your biggest fears I'm sorry your poetry is full of sadness and venting I'm sorry your destroying this body you're renting Deep on the cell of your heart, your memories you keep Remincing on the easy years tends to make you weep Why can't you get out of this hole Apparently your wellbeing its supposed to save But you may as well be standing in your own grave

Dear Self,
Dear self, I'm sorry your spirit is broken A firefly trapped in a jar yearning to be set free I'm sorry for your sorrows They're starting to get to thee You were meant to shine for everyone But they are selfish and want you all to themselves I'm sorry no one understands the dreams you want to achieve I'm sorry you can't get anyone to believe Can't they see you drowning? Drowning in your own tears Dying in this hell your living is one of your biggest fears I'm sorry your poetry is full of sadness and venting I'm sorry your destroying this body you're renting Deep on the cell of your heart, your memories you keep Remincing on the easy years tends to make you weep Why can't you get out of this hole Apparently your wellbeing its supposed to save But you may as well be standing in your own grave
