A Letter To Myself:

Why do we stand so tall to only fall down again?
To pick ourselves back up, start anew.
People will always disappoint us in our time here.
But you must never forget those who loved and were loved.
Love.
It's a simple word. But holds such immense power.
Don't ever feel as if you aren't worth anything.
Especially not at the mercy of love.
You are amazing.
You are worth it.
You are...
Inspiring to the ear,
Beautiful to the eye,
Polished to the touch.
Have faith in others, ones that are true.
Fall in Love, Have an Adventure, Compose a song, write a novel.
Be yourself.
Be you.
You only get one life in this crazy, messed up, insane world.
Live it.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
