I say stay away because I want you
to be true
To do and feel the opposite
Stay...
Always
Look at me with sincere eyes and
true voice
Even if I'm the one who receives
your madness
Or unfeeling
My tiny voice can only manage to say
I love you
But there's more
And you may hate me for this
But if you do, that's okay
I'm unlike any other
But I'm like them too
I have committed sins
I'm full of weaknesses—
I never seem to run out
I have an ugly heart
I have beauty somewhere
Maybe if you squint your eyes and I
get blurry
Or when I disappear completely
My tiny voice defeats my height
My shaking hands defeat my
knowledge
My wisdom that may never prove
itself before I become someone
Someone who deserves something
Something more than I can
understand at the moment
The most tender melodies I'd like to
sing for you, do you know that?
But would you care if I do?
Will you wait?
No one waits forever.
Especially for someone like me.
Madness likes me
But I refuse to reach out to it so that
I can sit with you on the floor
Oh crying boy I love you so much
Don't ever give up on your life
Don't be like me
Don't get stuck with me in the darkness
even if I ask and beg you to
To whom it may concern,
I hate writing formal letters
I can only write letters like this
Letters which may or may not reach
you
Live and love yourself
I bruise and bleed easily but I'm
stronger than you think

I want you to be strong too.

PS
I hope you write me a letter too
when you read this. Not right away
but, I'd like to be written letters too.
a/n: Day 11 entry for 100 Days of Poetry. I was encouraged by a friend to not hesitate to show my dark side, my emotional side in my writing. So, I was able to write like this again.
Written on August 2nd.
