Endless and Heavenly

Endless and heavenly 
By Michelle Morris

When we are young
We believe in ourselves
That we can do and be anything
Nothing is impossible

We have so many hopes and dreams 
So much hope in our unknown future
We have this beautiful faith
That we truly matter

But society 
Gets in our way so much
Our family and friends
And strangers too

Everyone has 
Another idea
Of who we must be, and
What we should be doing

And all those hopes and dreams
Every bright thing we are
Often gets packed away
Tightly in a little box

This box gets crushed 
Under the pressure
Of every day we survive
Every day we try to flourish 

And every moment 
That we sacrifice our true selves
Is another moment that 
Affects our soul's light 

We lose our sparkly magic 
Our souls die bit by bit
Unless we hold on to
Our purest truth with grit

For we are created from
Starlight and magic
We are created to be
Bright sparks and angelic

We are created to go on
Endless and heavenly
We need to remember this
Every moment we live

So be magical beyond this world 
You are a blessing and a miracle
Make the impossible possible
And light up the Universe 

Unwrap the gift that is you
Unfurl your greatness and rise
Like a phoenix and show the Universe
Your majestic and beautiful self

Thrive and live your dreams
Be grateful for everything
And never become small
For you are the Universe's blessing

Love it we don't need to adapt to what this world will mold one into to seek happiness but what Christ will mold one into
