A LETTER TO MY OLD SELF


 Dear old me, I'm sorry for picking them over you,

I thought I was doing what was right, but I never knew I was doing you wrong.

I traded your crown for a cloud of misery and wrechedness,

I shut you out only to let them in;

Kept you in the dark thinking I was heading towards the light.

Forsaking you only to realize, that I was being foolish.


I rejected you, threw you behind bars, while I embrace and grasp them so firm that I didn't notice I was eating myself up from within, like a parasite.

I helped them build their dreams while mine came crumbling,

I aided in their making, fostered their destines and truncate mine...

How rattledbrained and ridiculous was I.


Dear old me, I apologize for every skipping tracks, just that the last wack ass who played me left a couple cracks.

I'm sorry for all the pain and hurt's,

I'm sorry for the times I disrespect,

I'm sorry for compromising, neglecting, and lowering your standards.


I'm sorry for dropping your sword and letting down your guard, please do forgive my folly.

I let you down to hades only to grip a character that's a trait to us,

I got wasted cos I didn't wanna deal with myself, walked upon thorn's to please people who don't give a damn about our broken heart.


Dear old me, after all the shame, dishonor and disgrace that I brought upon you, would you still call me, you?

Or will you shut me out?

I know I was supposed to love you like me, but I guess, I f*cked up.

I'm profoundly sorry, please extend your hand and reach for me, together we'll right this wrong;

I hope these words reach you well.
