Dear little lady,
You are so much more
than you realize
or will ever be told.
You are not just a body
You are not just property
You are not the worthless,
wasted spaced,
worst use of a great life,
w***e,
ugly,
monster,
shorty,
scarred,
stupid,
four eyed,
freak,
broken,
attention w***e
and every other bad thought
you have about yourself.
You ARE Maya!
You are flesh and bone,
A beautiful beating heart,
With brown eyes that sparkle;
like the fire in
Your belly
When you love something.
You are alive
and meant to be.
You will be ok
maybe not today or
tomorrow but one day
you will be ok babygirl.
You don't need to keep tally
of your “mistakes"
Just live your life.
It will keep it for you by the
Lessons you learn.
Remember to keep smiling,
Don't ever stop laughing.
Love will always be there for
you when you need it.
It may not come the way
you dreamt.
But take it and keep close to
your heart.
You are resilient,
Beautiful,
Timeless,
Loved,
You are good enough,
Wanted,
Needed,
Amazing
I'm at a loss for words because
There is no language
I can learn that
Has the right
And even enough
Adjectives to
Describe you.
I would find a
Way to remind you
of yourself by poetic means but
the truth of the matter is
you are you and
As long as you stay that
Way,
It will make the greatest difference.
I still love you.
I'm sorry that I forget
to tell you sometimes
I'm working on it.
I know I haven't taken
the best care of you
But I'm learning to again.
There is so much
in this world
and I want you to go out grab
the world by the lapels and kick a**.
Some faces will
Come and go
Like the storms we used to
Hide from
But no matter what when
It's all over
I will still
Be there
Arm wrapped tightly around
You keeping you safe.
You have such a beautiful voice
USE IT!
Don't be afraid of the change
your words might bring
Embrace it.
Just promise me you won't change too much before the times or by them
but change with them
like your drawings do.

Sincerely,



M.Y.Z.
P.S. Never stop falling in love. There too much to love to be filled with anything but it and the beauty that you are. I miss you.
