You can’t hide

You were born to run wild

Like the sun of a November morning...

Your light is too much to fade

You can’t shrink yourself

You can’t live a half-life

You can’t put your dreams on a shelf

Life is now!

Life is out there...

Don’t grow cold! Dear, don’t grow old!

Your wings are too big to be put into a mold...

Be! Just be! & the world will adjust

By the end of the days... it’s the little things that last

Chase butterflies, walk barefoot, sing, fly…

The journey is the way!

And joy is not on the safe side...

You have to cross the river

Sometimes, burn bridges...

or maybe, break away...

To where you’re most alive

To where You can touch the sky

To where you don’t have to hide...
