Dear Future

A note to the future us

Dear Future or Dear Future me.

I don't have the words to say

Or the things to plea.

I know I need change but I don't wanna change.

We live in the past

And we wish for the future.

We beg you to come but dread when you are near.

We desire what we can't have and despise the things we do.

Help me to hold onto this moment and not wish for the future before it is near.

Dear future you are coming and I am ready.
