Dear Death,

Fuck you.

Dear Cancer,

Fuck you too!

Dear Addiction,

I’m hunting you down.  It is the end my friend.

 

Dear Guilt,

Keep trying.

Dear Anger,

Please go. Fade away.

Dear Shame,

Not Today!

 

Dear Body,

Please stop fucking hurting.

 

Dear Heart,

I am sorry. Please don’t miss a beat

Dear Mind,

Don’t worry.

Dear Soul,

Keep growing.  Seek the light.

 

Dear Voice,

Sing softly through the night.

Dear Hands.

Get down the words, take time for drawing.

 

Dear Children,

I love you.  To infinity and beyond.

Dear Memories,

Be Kind.
