Don't Be Afraid

My son
This sun may not always shine on you
My boy
This joy may not always be your lot
My girl
This world may not always call your name
The sea you see,
May drown all your dreams
But you, raise your chin
Don’t you let those demons in
Don’t be afraid of anything…
My child
Complied in every book you’ll read
Beauty, wisdom
And secrets untold
My friend,
No end to the questions you may ask
but who hears you
when you dare break the mold???
then you, raise your chin.
Don’t you let those demons in.
Don’t be afraid of anything
Don’t be afraid of anything…
remember the light from whence you came.
remember,
and go back again…
remember the light from whence you came.
remember!
and go back again…
don’t be afraid of anything!
My son
This sun may not always shine on you
Breath deep
Don’t keep your fist forever clenched.
Don’t be afraid of anything…
