Yours Truly
It took me a while to start this poem to acknowledge you.
Honestly, I do not know why.
I did not know what to say to you yet.
I knew that I would have to be in a vulnerable state with you since the last time we met.
I want you to know that I love you dearly.
You mean so much to me.
You remind me every day of who I am.
I love how you show up in my creative endeavors as that is where you shine the most.
You gently give me my daily dosage of fearlessness.
It reminds me how I was not scared of this thing called life.
I know you because you did not think twice about anything.
You live carefree courageously.
You live life on purpose.
Honestly, it amazes me how you stay in a positive light.
You have the spirit of a warrior.
Even through your tears.
You are going to stand up and fight.
I do not think you know how much of a teacher you are to me.
I look to you when I get lost in this world.
We were amazing as a little girl.
Now, it is my turn to carry the torch that you ignited.
I want you to know that you are safe, you can relax, and that I got it.
You will be proud of me as much as I am proud of you.
I love you.Voting starts September 27, 2024 12:00am

Zhaytria, I love this so much!! Seeing little reminders of our childhood throughout our lives is so beautiful and can be so nostalgic (in the best way possible). I am sure that little Zhay would have been so happy to receive this and to hear that her ‘grown-up’ self has become an amazing person. Keep up the great work ♥♥
