To Whom It May Concern

To Who It May Concern:

It does not make sense
Why you hide yourself
By spinning realities
Like different spools of thread
Varying colors and textures
Based on whose image occupies your head.

Do you not see the let downs
You bring wrapped in pretty promises?
Do you conceive you're responsibility-free
From the hurt this causes others?

People will cease showering
You with invitations
If you cocoon them in your web
Of situational exaggerations
Or monetary lamentations.

Appreciate the diligence
Honesty requires.
Let the pangs of falsehood
Be remedied by ambition
To forgive one's faults
And live by one's truths.

Avoid shackling yourself down
By dilatory desire.
Wishing and wanting are markedly
Different from acting and achieving.

Everyone hopes for unadulterated proof
Of not only your self-love
But your self-efficacy.
And most of all for you to listen selflessly
To those speaking to you.

Living like this, you will no longer have to hide
Behind stichings of insecurity.
Your potential will befriend possibility.
Your phenomenal charm will attract
Unexpected felicity.
Hazy vision repaired, now able to view
You and me, he and she, they and we.

Step outside the web
Without hesitation,
Without evasion:
These heavy rocks you push up the mountain.
You are not Sisyphus cursed,
Close the book on mythology,
Make living the life a priority,
Always appreciating those people
Cheering on the sidelines.

Sincerely, Truly Yours, With Fondness,
Good Luck, Your Friend, Best Wishes.
Keep in touch.
