A letter to my younger self
Younger me, don’t rush the days to prove you are strong,
Some lessons take years, some nights feel endlessly long.
You will lose what you love and find yourself too,
In the breaking of dreams, a braver heart grows in you.
Walk gently, stay kind, let your true self be free,
Everything you become begins with believing in me.
You’ll stumble on paths you once swore you would own,
Feel lonely in crowds, feel unheard on the phone.
But trust me; each scar is a map, not a curse,
Your pain is a chapter, not the end of the verse.
Let your heart embrace every moment
They sky is not the limit,
Rise up & grow.
Never let anyone let you down,
For whatever you want in life.
Never forget "once bitten twice shine"
Child of light, you're the one
That will set the sky ablaze, and make everything go straight
The world doubts you, but I don't
Coz I've seen, the fire that burns in you
And it's great indeed
So when the road feels heavy and hope feels thin,
Remember this letter, remember your win.
You were never too small, never lost, never late,
You are becoming the proof that patience creates.
Hold on to your light, let your courage renew
The future is waiting, and it’s written by you.
