A Love Letter to Myself
by Karen Hernández
Dear Karen,
I just wanted to tell you that you have been through a lot, and still you manage to deal and confront things. Even though no one really understands you, I do. I know all of the reasons why you feel a certain way or act a certain way. Even though people think that all you do is drug yourself and f*** guys, I know that it’s not true. Stop hating your mother for saying things like that, too. She is just ignorant and has always been. Anyways, just remember that when you cry, I wipe your tears; and when you’re hungry, I feed you; and I’ll always be here for you. When you feel lonely, write to me. Don’t be shy – I care for you.
Karen
