Dear Me
Dear me, I’m proud of you
For always doing what you gotta do
For showing up when you don’t want to
For falling back but then pushing through
Dear me, let me show you some love,
And some pride for how you rise above
How you hold your own when push comes to shove.
For the strength and will that you’re made of.
Dear me, thank you for holding on
For stepping up and being strong
For standing against what you know is wrong.
It was always you, girl, all along.
Dear me, you thought you couldn’t make it, but here you are
The road was long but you traveled far
There’s beauty in those battle scars
And now you’re shining like a superstar.
Dear me,
I forgive you.
I love you.
I need you.
Better yet, I WANT you.
I am proud of you.
I support you.
I believe in you.
Dear me,
You got this, girl,
Yes, you do.
Yes. I do.
