Dear past me,

I know what you'd say to me

I know you'd say I'd messed up my life.

But really, it was all you.

How?

You'll know.

For now, I can't say

what really happened.

It will change you

for the better

and for the worst.

Yes, it did mess up your life

But I can't do anything

to change that now.


Now, 

I have to charge forward

with a sword in hand

screaming a battle cry

filled with fear and courage

It was you. 

It was me.

We both messed up.

So now,

a word of advice.

Learn from your mistakes

And keep your head held high.

Love from, your future self.
