Dear Past Self
Dear past self
I wish I could’ve given you a big hug
And tell you everything will be okay
All the hurt you’ve been through
All the tears you’ve cried
I just wish I could’ve told youDear past self
I wish I could’ve given you a big hug
And tell you everything will be okay
All the hurt you’ve been through
All the tears you’ve cried
I just wish I could’ve told you
That self medicating doesn’t help
It will only make you feel emptier than you already feel
You were always looking for things to make you feel whole again
You tried so hard to look for things to bring back your innocence
It would constantly leave you feeling exhausted
Like there’s nothing else you could do
You thought looking for boys would help you feel whole
But that made you feel even emptier
But babygirl
We both know you can’t get that back from the person who took it
I just wish I could’ve told you that things get hard before they get better
You’re one beautiful girl, I wish you could’ve seen that
And you’re so strong, stronger than you ever will know
Everything will be okay
I just wish I could’ve given you a big hug
And wiped your tears away
