Bravery
A seven-letter word
And here’s a guide
Of seven parts
To teach us all
How to be brave
One
Fake it till you make it
Keep smiling till it’s real
Keep talking till you find
It’s getting easier
Two,
Give second chances
To those that you know
Compassion can change
And learn when
A second chance
Will only hurt you
Three,
Be honest
If only with yourself
About how you feel and
How you don’t
Discover what your passions are
And relearn yourself again
Four,
Keep both feet on the ground
You’re not meant
To be walked over
Or to keep falling down
Until your knees are bruised
Five
You are a work of art
Treat yourself like
You are holy and
You are in control
Even if you’re hurting and you’re bleeding
Your scars inside and out
Make you a canvas of the human life
Six,
Remind yourself you are worthy
You are cared for
And your experiences cannot
Define you forever
Because it’ll hurt
And forever is a long time
For you to forget
You are worthy
Seven,
Remember you’re not a coward
When it’s hard and you
Can’t remember what it’s like
For the sun to shine and the rain
To give you a break
Even when it’s hard to recall
When you loved yourself
And you just keep faking it
But you feel you
Will never make it
You are not a coward.
