Brave Song Poem by Casey Jarrell

In this melody deep inside of me,
I will tell you high over the sea.
I had to keep walking on this path.
I have to be strong.
I won't be afraid of anything:
Now, I will show you.

Someday, you may feel alone and all that you have are your memories.
Everybody you love will always be there.
Stand up for yourself.
Never shed a tear.

In this melody deep inside of me,
I'm at a place where I see myself.
I now know that I am not alone.
As the wind blows through my hair,
the future seems brighter.

I will not ever forget you.
My memories will stand strong.
When you are feeling sad,
I will hold your hand.

The light in our eyes will shine on.
We'll raise our hands as we pray.
As the sea begins to sway,
I look at my friends.

In this melody deep inside of me,
I will tell you high over the sea.
I had to keep walking on this path.
I have to be strong.
I won't be afraid of anything.
Now, I will show you.
