A Letter for My Younger Self
"You have been through a lot, but you've made it this far, and I'm so proud of you."
                             ~ Zoë Rebecca

First and foremost, I'm sorry that you have been through a lot, trauma, dealing with depression and anxiety, being bullied and maltreated, and being scarred for the rest of your life by your mother, and all of it isn't your fault, maybe you're thinking that you're not good enough and you're worthless, they are just too blind to see that you're a kind and loving person, you're mother is just too wicked to treat you that way.

I'm sorry that they took away your happiness at such a young age, the way they did to you was inhuman, full of pain and terror, no one comforted you all along, and in the midst of your crying no one was there, you've been mad, and upset by all of them but you keep quiet because they won't hear you though, I'm sorry that you can't fight you're too naive back then, in your room, you had to cry until there's no more left to cry, you've been alone all your life.

Unloved and miserable for all these years that's what you've felt for what they have done to you, I'm sorry that you feel that way, your scarred body and soul that has been breathless all the time, I'm sorry that you allow them to treat you that way because you are more than that, I'm sorry that you're too scared to reach out, I'm sorry that you already saw all the terrifying madness in this world, the excruciating pain they leave you breathless.

For all this time, thank you for being strong and brave that amid the pain you've been through here you are standing strong and you made it out alive, thank you for not doing all your suicidal thoughts, thank you for all the smiles that amidst the pain you're still smiling, thank you for holding on to the beauty of life even the world gives you the opposite meaning, you are so brave every time and you will be happy again soon, and that I promise you.
