[a love latter to myself]
[a #writco.in poem]

Oh sweetheart, no one loves you like you love yourself.
In tough times, no one bothers; how are you doing?
It's tough, they say, you must stand by yourself, fight by yourself.

Oh sweetheart, when good times swarm in,
Be cautious, you have one life to live.
Be careful on your path, they'll try to make you small,
Don't forget how much you fought through it all.

Tears fell like rain, sorrow and shame,
You toiled in hunger, oh sweetheart, what's your name?
Where were they when you needed them most?
