Dear Lupe

Dear Lupe finds the rocks I've fallen on
she sweeps them away from my feet

In return I shed away my con
for her, my conscience wont retreat


Dear Lupe awakes me when my eyes freeze

When the sun rises where my back stares at the sky

she reminds me to get off my knees

and give the world another try


Dear Lupe shows me a path I can walk

to stand on two feet with shoulders drawn back

she lines the floor with the most visible of chalk

so as to avoid my falling in between the cracks


Dear Lupe is a girl who'll never care

if my fortunes start to wain

she'll be sitting by my side without regretful stare

she's the one who keeps me sane


Dear Lupe, sort this letter first among the "Dears"

for you no longer have this soul to moderate
If you ever find yourself drowning in tears

Ill be there to resuscitate


Dear Lupe, I hope the light you shine never fades

for without it, I would be forever blind

without it, my humanity and care would cascade

without it, I would shut down...all because of your heart so kind
