-
Inspire me to be more than me,
to be all the things that I long to be -
still a heart, a mind, soul undefined
trapped in concrete fate to never shine.
So find no cave, no hole to hide
no question where no answer resides;
just love, just love, just love eternal
that keeps heart on course on nights infernal
and is more than surface, than epidermal,
and springs forth alongside sighs nocturnal;
inspire forever, and never never
for a soul that trusts no guarantee,
then those steadfast in integrity
will cheer for me in jubilee
when no beat stops at every glance,
just hope with all my faith in chance -
so I’ll be deaf to all sound and note
but if you cast the mast, I’ll board the boat,
and just visualize all of forever
in wishful winds that will never sever,
and I’ll raise your thirty with thirty-one
as we laugh in the light of midnight sun
in gratitude of silver that we could’ve spun
past a life with victories never won
and mistakes that faithfully see rerun.
All I wish for is for fear undone -
to remove the cartridge from my gun.
But you have to admit:
we’ll definitely make it.
And if we don’t -
then all the same,
we’ll definitely make it.
