This is a letter to the old me
The old me who lost the battle to the new me
The old me had pushed me around, broke me down. felt like I wasn't worth being around
Was constantly being bullied, laughed at, it drove me crazy like a madman
Constantly running home from school crying, always felt like dying
Depression, anxiety, anger!
Always thought that leaving this earth would be better not for worse
Back then I wasn't thinking clearly
I just wanted the kids to stop hurting me
But that was the old me
The old me would never had the confidence to speak up and say enough was enough!
Had most family turn the other way
I told myself that " I always felt alone anyway"
Constantly told myself that "Everything would be okay"
When in reality things never went my way
I was never okay
I didn't want to stay in school and socialize
Didn't think that anything was safe anymore
Tried to run for help from door to door but never received anything at the end
When I had went to my counselors for help in middle school all they did was tell m business to the whole school and just laugh at me
But that was the old me
Trying to constantly find a place to fit in and feel comfortable being me, feeling loved, being accepted! for just being me!
Felt like the dark walls were caving in as every suicide attempt came my way
Trying to escape from this cruel place
Felt like I was in a super tight space
But that was the old me..................
Then that's when the new me came and saved the old me from completely losing myself
Took me in and let me rest myself
This is the new me
The new me stands up for what is right! and doesn't let anyone push me around anymore
Constantly uplifts other Kings, Queens, Princes and Princesses
From being in the old me shoes or worse
Tells them to " love, heal & be yourself"
"Fuck everyone else" and let others self- destruct and if they don't want to stand by you then that's their lost
They will have to try harder in bringing you down because you already know your worth
this is the new me
Dear Old me,
I promise to hold you down
Take care of you
Restore you
And to protect you
I will not let anything or anyone harm you ever again................. I promise!!
