Spirit

The thoughts and feelings going on inside your brain,
I know are driving you insane,
But no matter how hurt you are,
To me you are a bright gold star,

All I want is for you to keep shining,
Even though you feel like dying

Know this pain will go away
And you will be free someday

For I am around you in thought,
To help you when your spirits caught,

To break those chains of torment
Smash up those huge shoes of cement

No longer will you drown
Rise up, breathe in life, do not frown

Life is precious and so are you, no longer can you feel blue,
Because you have me, and our friendship is true.
