Call me crazy but I sat here tonight wondering what I would ever tell
myself if I could go back in time. As much as I’d like to change some
of my mistakes I don’t know if I would. Could really fuck up some kid
if they got to hear what I had to say.
So if I could send a letter back
in time this is what it’d be
Dear Lindsey,
You may find this hard to believe, hell I know I would. But I am you,
well you in the future. This is going to be sent back to you of course
before you come into the world of the unnatural. Just hear me out, that
is all I ask.
I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life. You know the way that dad
treats me well you. It isn’t the greatest. And then of course there are
those other kids. The ones that live on the other side of the tracks so
to say. Just remember to keep you head strong and know that one day you
will be better then them. I can say that now as I have lived much more
then any of them every will. Maybe not an honest living but I rose up
from the dirt unlike them.
If I could I’d tell you more. Tell you more to change what is to become
but as they say you can’t change certain things that happen. I’d hate
to see something horrible happen because I changed something that I
did. Not that I really did a lot of good things but there are a few.
Just remember that one day someone will come along, someone that will
show you something that you have never felt before. Once that happens
it will be ok to give up your old ways and to give up your hate for a
certain person. Not that I haven’t completely given up my hate for this
person but because of him I got to meet a wonderful woman.
Just take life as it goes by and know that better things await you, stuff you can’t even begin to imagine.
Lindsey
