It’s okay
Is what he tells himself everyday
I’m okay
Is what he tells others
It’s okay
Is how he gets through each day
I’m okay
Is all the motivation that he needs
And when he’s not okay
When his world seems to be crumbling down
When everything is going south
When he feels abandoned and alone
I’m okay turns into I’m not okay
But I will be.
When the lights dim low,
And the stars start to glow
We will see everything that the universe has to offer and show
You and I, we’ll be there
Appreciating the beauty in the wonders across the sky
And pretending meteoroids are passing by
We’ll lay down and we’ll stare
At it all
Thinking about how there’s a star giving energy to the earth
And how there is so much universe
No one can truly agree how it got there
But it’s there, with everything seemingly in place
There’s so much we’ll see when the lights dim low
And all the stars show
You are stronger than you know.
You are strong, and it shows.
Sometimes it is easier to see our weaknesses, what we lack, what we should have
And harder to embrace ourselves, who we are, and our strength.
You are stronger than you know.
You get through each day.
You endure the heartaches, the headaches, and the heartbreaks.
You are strong, and it shows.
Sometimes you may feel like your world is crumbling down,
And that better days are nowhere to be found.
But Alas, here you are, facing the difficulties, and getting up day after day.
You are strong, even though you may think otherwise.
You are strong, even if what you feel says otherwise.
You are strong,
And it shows.
They said she couldn’t. They thought she wouldn’t. Yet she believed.
She believed in herself even when no one else did.
Day after day, she put 110 percent in every task she completed, her work, and her craft.
Day after day, she received criticism.
Day after day, she received judgment.
She took the words within each critique to improve.
She used the judgement as motivation.
She didn’t hesitate to take on the world, with faith and hope helping her every step of the way.
She believed, for she had nothing to prove to the world,
But everything to prove to herself.
You and I,
We have a connection, I assure you it’s there
We can walk
We can talk
With nature’s beauty everywhere.
We can laugh
We can kiss
Being with you is such a bliss
There’s no need to rush now,
No need at all.
Stay
I want to hold you tight
I want to hold you near
Stay
There’s still memories to take
And chances to make
Stay
With you by my side,
Everything seems possible
Stay a little longer
Stay with me.
