After The Rain
Ciara Hennessy Aug 2014
I wish I could hold you, tell you everything's alright
But I cannot promise you no rain in this time of drought.
The scrapes and bruises on your legs
Mirror those of mine
I swear to you my friend,
You are not alone!
What I can do is take your hand
And sit with you a while
I can promise you adventure!
A time to laugh and time to cry.
For where there comes rain comes rainbows
And where there is darkness there is light
There is something in you greater than this fight
So take my hand and we will defy
Every raindrop and teardrop in the sky
Together all our broken pieces slot together
As courage takes over, and the sun comes out.

This Is Your Song
Ciara Hennessy Aug 2014
Understand that you are so much more
Than all you can think, than all you could explore
You're more than those doubts, more than your fears
More than the blemishes that scream in your eyes
I can promise you this,
We see so much more
We see your beauty, we see your promise
The light in your eyes behind the darkness
We know your future, we don't doubt it
You can be anything, we won't stop it!
Be a Starship Ranger or a Warbler!
Stay the person you intrinsically are
And to us you'll always be a star.

— The End —
