this is a letter to myself.
Dear Me:
You're really weird. You hide yourself from other people and yet you yearn to be accepted. You're oblivious to the fact that some people aren't bad and some want to know you and see through to the face behind the mask. You have so much going for you that you never take the time out to see. You say you wish you understood how today's society works, but really you want to understand what's going on in your own mind first, instead of just asking "why?" and "why me?" all the time.
But you're me and I am you. My flaws are your flaws and your flaws are mine. I want to be accepted. I want to learn to trust people. I want to understand society, but more so, and more than anything else, I want to understand myself.
There are so many things I want to know and so many questions I will never hear the answer to. It makes me want to explode. I'm going to explode if my mind keeps repeating so many questions. Wait. Stop. Breathe. Let the blood flow back in through your body. Take it one step at a time.
This is the letter I'll never send. You won't get a chance to read it, but I'm there in the back of your mind. I serve as the constant reminder of how you're weird, maybe, but normal. You are just your average teen. I am just your average teen.
I am here only to remind you of the simple truth that life isn't always easy, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. No, it's not an oncoming train. It's the day all your answers will come to you; the day you begin to understand your life. Hold on, no matter how overpowering the questions become. You're worth more than that. I am worth more than that.
Sincerely,
Me
I think I'll hold on to this letter to keep myself going no matter how tough things might seem. Life isn't always easy, but I'm willing to try to figure some things out. I am weird, but at the same time I am normal. This is the letter I'll never send, but it has been and will always be in the back of my mind..
