Dear younger Vanessa
As the older one here
Its only natural
For me to want to give you advise
Whether wise or not
Its all for you to decide
So sit down
Little girl
Grab a cup
Of tea
And open your ears
If you chose to believe
Then all will be well
So maybe just maybe
You could be saved
Instead
First thing first
The girls a few years after now
In your life
Won't like the way you look
Nor the way you act
Or sing
Or that your IQ shoots higher
Than theirs
But be strong little girl
That will only be the first blow
So stay brave soldier
Hold on to your armor
And block all the words
Don't believe in the saying
Words don't hurt
Because no my dear
They hurt deeper than any weapon in the world
Especially coming from the right person
You'll come to know those you love
Hurt you strongest
But it's okay
Just brave up and fight
The courage you have remarkable
Darling
Hold on tight
Through the pain
Through the sickness
Through the names
Through the blames
Hold on
Hold on tight my dear
For you coming out pure
Is what would be yours and mine greatest victory
