All this time
And I never wrote a note to me
So here’s to me.
Dear me,
You can be so hard to see
This girl who
Always had it easy
Or so that’s what they see
Heavy is heartbreak
But you were never made to carry this weight
So you grew in strength.
I wish it was as simple
as telling you how proud I am.
Imagine me holding your hand
You walk into dark rooms
You stand in flames
You shine when it rains
You and I are the same.
Giving has always been easy
But receiving and feeling
Leaves room for healing.
They will teach you lessons of sacrifice
But darling you only need to play nice
With the girl who looks back at you in the mirror,
For her burden is light.
