May 8
Courage
It comes without warning
As the sun rises in the morning
And as the sun heats the surface of the glass
Do it now or it will pass
The cracks shape your future
The picture is no longer clear
The jagged edge of latent fear
Changes hope to regret each year
While the glass is warm it’s clear
Do it now and flee your fear
Turn discourage into a voyage
Across time and space
Venture into the netherworld where
Hope is much more commonplace
If it passes you’ll wish you held onto the wake
And in the noonday sun the glass will break
The pieces cannot be forged again
Assume the courage and help your friend
