Raise Your Head

Raise your head Salute the horizon Make a wish Upon a star Value who wants you in their lives Leave all the others behind Not everyone has to like you Some will ignore you Hurt your heart Raise your head When you feel down Salute the horizon Look for a new start Wipe off the hurt From inside your heart Leave all the pain behind Not all friendships are meant to last Some friends are for forever Some for a few months Some are gone too fast Give all that you are For while it lasts Don’t shut off your heart For fear of getting hurt Who cares too much Can’t do it halfway It’s all Or nothing There’s no midway Just raise your head Hope for the best Salute the horizon Leave the hurt in the past *** March 10th, 2017
