To: Me
Emotions on a piece of paper,
I was never really good with this
To open up, let it go
I guess it'd be easier if dreams were
Just an arm's length away
But recently i've been falling asleep to requiems
And waking up to memories
There's nothing more humbling than
Feeling how it all slithers away
Like dust between your fingers
That's what I like about you
I never told you, but you were always good
With making yourself miserable
To build a beautiful life from dreamstuff and wants,
And then sit with that silly smile amidst the wreck
Whispering to yourself that you fucked it up again,
And like a bad habit you just stand up,
Making do after your own scortched earth tactic
Its 2022
You've grown wiser after that silly trip to
Find a cure in a foreign land
You had a rough patch after finally getting that 'no'
You so desperately needed inorder to move on
Maybe you moved on,
But I doubt it
It left an ugly scar in the shape of bags under your eyes
And a smile that says 'No, just tired'
Maybe you should change, my friend
And maybe not.
Whom am I to say?
I'm your biggest fan
I was rooting for the underdog since it all started
And I know the futility of it all
This letter, the honeyed words
Go, die and be born again
This is the only thing you are good at
