Poetry Prompt: Letter to Self

Today’s prompt is an oldie, but a goodie.

Write a letter to your younger self. It could be a letter to your inner child, a letter to you the night before you get married/divorced/graduate/etc, or a letter to yourself half an hour before you ate something you should not have.

What would you say to yourself, if given a chance?

As an example, click here to read my poem “A letter to myself at 16.

Note: I wrote that poem over ten years ago, when I was in my early 30’s. I wonder what I would tell myself differently if I wrote it today.
