To you.

She's a wild thang ain't she? 

You're looking through your window wondering what it's like to walk through her door. 

You've been cooped up and afraid to explore.

You stick to your phone and what you think you know .

 

Remember how you used to be?

Cunning and unapologetic. Unafraid of what comes next. 

When the good gestures of kind strangers warmed your heart. 

Nothing has changed, you still feel the same feelings when you feel love. 

 

Why do you have to be this way? Huh?

You don't. 

Everyday the world is on the other side of that door. 

Don't live in a nostalgic trance. 

 

Remember... you are capable. 

Look within yourself. 

Live without fear. 

You are not measured by the amount of money you make. 

Live for truth. 

 

Sincerely, 

Us.
