Honey, don’t fret

Make sure not to forget, 

Who you are, or want to be, 

Let this be a letter of sympathy. 

 

Babe, don’t cry, 

You are beautiful, just try, 

To ignore their hate, their apathy, 

Let this be a letter of sympathy. 

 

Child, don’t be scared, 

Life is unpredictable, sometimes unfair, 

Just live on, your life spared, 

I am your guide when you’re lost, 

I am your warmth during the frost, 

Try to find the light in your despair. 

 

Sweetheart, don’t forget 

I am here, and will always be, 

I am your support when you’re upset, 

Let this be a letter of sympathy,

For when you have those lowly times, 

I will comfort you, my angel, dear, 

I will be there when no one’s near, 

So when they tease, bully you, 

Always be kind; always be true, 

So when they just don’t understand, 

Just laugh with them, try to withstand 

Their petty jokes, minds corrupt, 

Make sure to keep your head up, 

Let your brilliant smile lead the way, 

Ignore their hate, everything they say, 

Just walk off, walk away

And when times get hard, really tough, 

And when you think life is rough, 

Heed my words, my child, 

Remember our memories, when we smiled,

Remember me, after a little while. 

 

Let this be a letter of sympathy, 

You will always have my empathy, 

My child, don’t ever worry about me, 

Focus on life; open and free 

Make some friends, try to survive, 

As if I was there, if I was alive, 

Know that you’re beautiful, kind and true, 

Know that I will always love you.
