Be Strong

Tempestuous heart
                        As you change moods
                       In the stormy seas of life
                      Do not give up your hope
                   It is with grave consequence
             That you would give in and give up
        It is with remorse that we would eulogize
  The demise of your hope, the passing of dreams
                 Do not succumb to the tempest
                  Be strong as the source of life
                    Symbolically as well, of love
                  Exist for those who live for you
              Waiver not in the winds of despair
                  Oh, great and glorious heart
                        Beat on as the rhythm
                              Of all existence
