Dear you
You are always trying to reach your full potential, but for whom?
You are always striving to be your best self
Even if that means neglecting authentic parts of yourself
You have taught yourself to be perfectionistic
It\'s who you are when you hold standards that are unrealistic
Why be so hard on yourself and for who?
Is it because you like it or because you don\'t know what else to do?
Look at where you are in this moment
You are probably your own opponent
Everyone else is enjoying their time as a child
While you are sitting here, making life in your head more compiled
Your biggest dream is to feel confident and free
So why act like you don\'t know how to be
Your own criticism takes the best of you
Is it all necessary to blame yourself for doing few
If you only knew
How life would feel when you were the true you
I would grant you that feeling
It\'s a journey to self-healing
Dear you
You are always trying to reach your full potential, but for whom?
You are always striving to be your best self
Even if that means neglecting authentic parts of yourself
I feel angry towards you
While I know it\'s not fair or the right thing to do
But I wish we would have embraced ourselves sooner
I wouldn\'t change a thing, but to live life with more humor.
Even though you make my life more difficult than it needs to be
I forgive you for everything—the whole picture you couldn\'t see
I\'m sorry for showing expressions of disgust
I should have started making trust in the process a must
If I could take back my ugly words, I would do it
Because I can see how it wasn\'t to your benefit
You did everything because you wanted to impress
You made it, but it has given you lots of stress
I now want you to feel very loved
Despite everything, you have never been unloved
I am here for you now
Accept my trust and allow
Dear you
You are always trying to reach your full potential, but for whom?
It\'s okay to strive to be your best self
But not if that means neglecting authentic parts of yourself
