we are cesspools
of other people’s
expectations
images
fears
broken dreams
longings
hopes
defeats
we are not
other people
we are
perfect
flawed
being
dreaming
hoping
living
gaining
losing
fighting
winning
hanging on by the
thinnest
thread
but we are
here
now
falling down
getting up
and you are
winning
living
loving
and
worthy
you are
being
beginning
not
ending
carry on
carry your flag
carry your brother
your sister
hold on
to
love
hope
dreaming
trying
you are never
quitting
stopping
dropping
out
you are
i am
we are
one
both
all
keep
going
and
going
and
growing
especially
when
groaning
and moaning
live friend
live
even if
you have no
hope
living is
giving
give it all
for like
the
waterfall
it will
end
but not yet
not now
not while
you
stand
guard
the sentinel
of your own
lighthouse
shine
the
light
bright
let no bushel
hide that star
let it be seen
wide and far
hold on
i’m holding on
we’re holding on
to
each
other
