Dear younger me
Will I become a tiny speck of dust and disappear?
Like a puzzle piece left alone
Do you feel like there's no place for you?
The child in the mirror
You hate them more than anyone else
The tears you've swallowed
Have formed an ocean in your heart

Small and fragile, mm
Dear younger me

In a dark, long night, alone in your room
You would curl up and fall asleep
By your bedside, on the damp pillow
A letter I leave for you

A shining future is just one step ahead
I'll be waiting for you there
Don't hold it in, it's okay to cry, you're doing well
Love, older you

In the crumpled diary
"I'm sorry for getting angry, Mom"
Always "work hard," and again "work hard"
Those words sometimes hurt

Dear younger me

In a dark, long night, alone in your room
You would curl up and fall asleep
By your bedside, on the damp pillow
A letter I leave for you

All those tears will give the future you
Even stronger wings
I'll hold you and say it's okay, I believe in you
Love, older you

Today, just try to fall into a deep sleep
(Dear younger me)
When you open your eyes, even your dark heart will become bright

Dear younger me, love, older you
Dear younger me, love, older you
I hope you believe in the you inside tomorrow and dream
Love, older you
