Little love letters
To those who allow me to be free
Simple acceptance
My flaws are part of my character
Flaws, acceptance
Learn from mistakes
Every day is a battle
To love, to accept,
To see past the things
That can hold many back from living.
A little love letter
To those who don't judge
But see past the failures
Which in most cases become lessons
To those who see past the skin to the outside
Who see beyond rules established
On organized ways of determining someone's worth
Which isn't ours to determine.
A little love letter
To express my thanks to all of those
Who regardless of lack of perfection
To those who are forgiven
And forgive with the same measure
To the ones that cried
That didn't hide
That were real
And allowed the soul and the mind
To act together
To those who can see
No one is always right
No one is always holy
No one can ever be untainted
For those who can take the pain
And turn it into something beautiful
Something you can taste within.
This is a love letter
To those who suffered
Who prayed
Who cried
Who gave me their strength
Who gave me their energy
Who gave me hope
For those who allowed themselves
To be moved
To be touched
To accept
And not attempt to destroy
Or to crush
Or to avoid.
This is a love letter
For those as well
Who did crush
Who did try to destroy
Who took
Who abused
Who misused
Who raped the flower before the growth
For those who thought
And think they are fallen and hopeless
For those who didn't want to see
Me get through.
