letter to my childhood self

Dear Bean,

I feel like a hypocrite for saying this, but I miss you. I think I want you back. Your passion was innocent; mine is just angry. You were smarter and more quick-witted than me. You were outgoing. You were full of light.

I know every single thing that made you afraid. I want you to know that I'm pretty brave, and I know you can be when you need to be. We could scare those wolves away if we try. I'm willing to try.

If you could find it in yourself... if you could find me in yourself... I would love to find you in myself.

Love always,

Baz
