Your Life Matters
No matter how hard the rain patters,
Your Life Matters.
Despite all the chatters,
Your Life Matters.
No matter the amount of glass that clatters,
Your Life Matters.
No matter the amount of hate served on platters,
Your Life Matters.
So when you’re facing confusing ladders remember that,
Your Life Matters.
Sunshine
Oh sunshine,
I can hear you chime.
Oh sunshine,
thanks for always being here,
even during the crimes.
Although the clouds often cover your light,
you remain with us during our fight,
by eventually shining bright.
Your rays sometimes are too strong,
but you tell us it is okay to be wrong,
and you aid us in happy song,
encouraging us to move along.
Oh sunshine,
you say that even though the world is out of line,
you will always be there,
making sure we are all fine.
HUMAN
We fight.
We think we are always right.
We may take away the light,
even during the pitch black night.
We are greedy,
needy,
speedy.
Despite these labels we are all one,
under the same sun.
Although we may try and run,
our story has just begun.
Amidst all the boomin’
and
fumin’,
We remember that:
WE ARE ALL HUMAN.
Stand Strong
Walk with purpose,
fight with courage,
STAND STRONG.
Be proud,
Brave,
Loud,
STAND STRONG.
After a loss,
a betrayal,
an accident,
or a defeat,
STAND STRONG.
No matter what is happening,
always remember to
STAND STRONG.
