Be strong little girl
Paint on a smile
Time to toughen up
Take your first steps
Into the cruelness of our days
Your shield no longer within reach
After all as you will learn
All good things come to an end
There is no for ever
Be brave little one
Hold on tight
This is going to hurt
Now take a deep breath
Let all your fears go
A part of you may be dying
But to all it will occur
On that cold eventual day
No harder could you have tried
To do what could be done
No wrong could be made right
Make the most of what you have
Awake to find your Morning Star
Your lifeline
Dreams can in fact come true
A love so special
Just how is this possible
You’ll be safe now
Destroy your anxiety
Allow your despair of neglect to decompose
Don’t worry sweetie
Just look and see
Such a treasure you behold
The brightest jewel you could know
Allow to be caught amongst its rays
Feel its protection and hope
Show the world
You have a million reasons to smile
What a team!
Such appreciation for one so dear
Survival was no possibility before
Never take for granted
For one day history will repeat
Memories return
With the hurt and pain
Just like before
Hold your head high darlin’
Look forward and fight on
You don’t need nobody
Fortune so great cannot strike twice
Just got to keep on living
Fall deep into reminiscence
Recall every happy time
For as long as you have those visions
No spirit will ever be truly gone
