Be brave now too The bravery of accepting without approving Becoming a member of greater humanity Because you want to contribute to a better world Transcending hurling insults and rejecting It is a different bravery, the bravery of growing up It breaks down the dams restraining your life force Your soul’s energy I love you I will hold you if you need comfort Stand back silently and not leave if you need to vent rage Give suggestion or listen and carefully consider I will not leave your side Join me existing on the real At the very least, always trying… I promise you Our days will be the most brilliant! You will be more comfortable with yourself, your life, your impact on the world The universe won’t seem so cursed You will see you have been saving approval for a perfect world Knowing deep inside how impossible that is And release that frustration that ultimately turns you against yourself Shuts you down You are precious No matter what you do, or don’t do, I will love you Intensely and forever My love for you has no contingencies But I think in the end… we both know… we do not really disagree
