2017 Me,
I hope you finally learn to be yourself around everyone, no matter who they may be. You have so much personality, but nobody gets to see it because you lock yourself up and keep quiet around anyone who tries to start a conversation. Don't be so hard on yourself, you're amazing and have an amazing life ahead of you. Just give no fucks about anyone, and everyone, you'll feel so much better. Try putting yourself first for once, you'll get more mentally stable. You need to keep the love you give to everyone. I know, you've been told you don't deserve love, but that doesn't mean you should be cold towards everyone. They love that you're kind, it makes you the person that you are. Keep writing, even if it's just a word a day. Don't give up that passion and love because it might just get you somewhere one day. Make friends by yourself. You started doing that as the year started, but I just want you to continue finding people by yourself. Appreciate the little things people say or do. So what if you cry over a letter someone wrote you? You just realized that they might actually care. Don't be so hard on yourself because I can't stress this enough. You have someone who will always be proud of you, so if you end up slipping on an assignment for school please don't let it get the best of you. Don't let people get the best of you because you don't deserve the pain you put yourself through. I hope I can learn to fully love you for you, rather than wishing for you to die. I can't wait to see what the new year brings for you, and for all the future years.
I'll always be here,
The 2016 you

PoesiaJust a girl putting her feelings into words. From poems to unsent letters, I pour my soul into each piece. Many of the pieces are about the dark parts of my mind, and wanting types of love that I'll never be able to have.
