Heart in hand
Side by side
We are stronger
We'll survive
Brother please don't let them take you,
I won't give in till I'm dead and beaten.
I won't give up on this dying world
No matter how much it has spit in my face.
Radiance of another will always lead us out of the dark;
We must embrace each other to finally break these shackles.
I know we all have burdens and demons,
But the truth is mere moments away,
Shine through the anger,
Fight past the pain.
Brother, sister do you hear my plea?
I'm falling I'm broken I need you to see.
Life is more than a one-way journey,
Don't accept defeat.
Together we can be set free.
Tattered tissue falls from bone leaving innocents exposed,
Withered muscles creak and crack as they try to move,
A cascade of shimmers over take my mind as I try to survive.
We all try to survive.
As I lay before the stars and the moon waiting to die.
I feel my last few moments approaching,
As the air grows thick the shadows close in.
Even now as I battle this disease I can hear the roar of my family.
Don't let go; persevere till the end don't give up.
I won't give up I won't let them win.
I will endure the pain for you I will become the best I can
I am the heart that beats beneath your chest
Do you see what I see?
Do you feel what I feel?
We will survive.
