when it's raining in your heart
i will put my umbrella over it.
when your coffee is bitter,
i will be the sugar.
when your heart is breaking
i'll buy a hundred band-aids.
when you're feeling small,
i'll tell you that you're brave.
when you're feeling tired,
i will let my shoulders be your pillow.
wherever you are,
there i'll be.
whatever you need,
here is me.

today,
i heard your
voice.
i heard your
song for me.
i heard you
and You said that
You loved me,
that You loved
me yesterday and
that You'll love me
tomorrow
and You said it
in every language
and You whispered it
and You shouted it
from the rooftops
and You didn't stop
singing
until i believed it.

when will you see the stars that shine in your heart?
when will you hear the music that your soul is singing?
when will you see the sweetness of your spirit, the kindness of your heart?
when will you see the brave warrior living in your soul?
when will you believe that you are loved?
when will you see the threads of grace woven in your hair?
when will you look at yourself in the mirror and see all that you can be?
when will you see who you are?

when you least expect;
loveliness, pure,
sweeps all else aside

in your heart
there is gold
in your heart
lies a brave spirit
in your heart
lives a sparrow
singing a tune of hope
in your heart
is a spark
that will set the world on fire
in your heart
lives truth and hope
and love and life.
open it.

when will you understand
that I love you?
what will it take for you to
believe me?
shall I write it in the sky?
shall I braid it in your hair?
shall I tattoo it on your skin?
shall I pour it in your coffee?
shall I whisper in your ear?
was my death not enough
for you?

everybody has a spark inside their hearts,
and many let it die.
many let heartbreak and fear and failure
define who they are.
but you're not everybody.
you don't ignore the spark in your heart,
you don't let the fire die.
instead you let it burn,
you let it dance,
you let it be wild.
you let it be light,
you let it be truth.
you let it be hope,
you let it be love.
because you are a butterfly with brave wings,
you are not afraid of dreaming big,
you are not afraid of shining bright,
you are not afraid to love.
you have this spark inside of you,
you're not afraid to let it burn.
you are full of light and color.
you are a firework.
