Courage

I hope you have the courage to begin anew,

To gather the fragments of heartache and hue,

And spin them into gold beneath your hands,

To create beauty from what life demands.

 

May you release the chains of what once was,

And find the present worthy just because.

With lessons etched deep into your soul,

May you surrender and trust in becoming whole.

 

I hope you dare to trust again, to feel,

To open wide, to let the wounds heal.

Overflowing with love, pure and bright,

May you find strength in every fight.

 

Let the past not hold your dreams in chains,

Nor the echo of doubt leave stubborn stains.

But choose to rise, to grow, to be,

Embracing all that life could see.

 

I hope you have the courage to take the leap,

To chase desires buried deep.

To believe in yourself, without delay,

And live in the fullness of today.

 

For endings are just chapters turned,

Where new beginnings are patiently earned.

Each door that closes leaves behind,

A key to strength, to a resilient mind.

 

Prioritise yourself in this world of haste,

Don't wait for saviors, don't let life waste.

For the hero you seek is within your core,

I hope you have the courage to ask for more.

 

And in trying, in falling, in rising once more,

May you find the courage to always explore.

For each step forward, each risk you take,

Is how the most beautiful beginnings awake.
