April 11: Poem 11

I write 
to an audience of me

because I know

you 

might never read this

and I try 

not to be sad about it.

Notes

I learned a while ago to only write what I'd want to read. I am not guaranteed any audience at all, and sometimes the people who I really hope will read my work never do. So, I accept that and write to myself. Often, I am writing to myself at different ages; I wish I could say this to 20-year-old me. It would have made many things much easier.
