dear past me
I’m sorry I was so ******* you
I didn’t know it was going to turn out this way
you made things really difficult for me
it took me a long time to forgive you for that
but I think I’m ready
I’ve accepted that what happened to you
wasn’t your fault
the way the system failed you
wasn’t your fault

dear present me
I’m so grateful for all that you’ve done
the way you’ve turned life around and strived
I’m proud of you I know you need to hear that
you’re amaze me and you’re not perfect yet
but you’re healing and you’re trying to get there
what happened to you shaped you and I hope
even if it takes you your whole life or being
you will flip the script and use it constructively

dear future me
I hope you’re happy and secure
if money is still a struggle for you don’t lose hope
hold on to every little thing you have
because in the end they are what matter most

i love you
the words i trace down your spine
i love you
the rhythm my heart beats to you
i love you
the words i ache to say
i love you
the three words left unwritten until now
i love you
three words only unspoken now

for the first time ever
i’ve had *** with my
mind
soul
and bones

you made love to my being
instead of my body

i’ve always wondered
does life get better
or do we get stronger?
Peach Pietersen Nov 2019
and for some reason
unbeknown to me
im still clinging to
the insane idea
that in the end
it’s me and you
If i can accept
and love the *******
in the mirror

I can accept
and love
your ******* too
My new philosophy
Peach Pietersen Nov 2019
there was a time
when we’d just laugh
and let happiness radiate

the reality that is adult life
is just disappointing
and not as thrilling as I’d hoped

I’m just trying to
fall in love with
my life again
