Promise me this,
That you’ll stay bright and curious.
Stand tall, shoulder’s back, hand clasped,
Stand like a punk.
Do not fold, do not bend.
Stay who you are because who you are is important.
355/365
355/365
Promise me this,
That you’ll stay bright and curious.
Say what is necessary, say it again, say it loud,
And do not yield for what you know to be true.
Do not shrink, do not diminish your light.
Stay who you are because who you are is important.
There are many impossible things we face.
There are so many, I cannot possibly write them all in similes and metaphors.
There will be many more impossible things to face.
We will meet them all, standing tall, with light, unyielding to the dark.
