I'm writing to the teenage girl
Who has been through enough to
Fill a 300 page book with her
Life story.
A fragile heart
And a hopeless romantic.
Someone looking for a hand to hold
When she’s lost.
She will pick up my writing as if it is glass:
Careful enough not to break it.
Her soft thumbs trace over the printed letters.

Sitting in a library,
Sipping warm coffee,
Someone is coloring over the sky with
Black charcoal.
She might still be lost after reading my
Delicate words,
But at least she’ll know that she’s
Not alone.

After writing the first poem I published on here, I wrote this small piece. It was a "Dear Reader Letter."
