A light, lyric poem written for a friend in need of inspiration.
Carry On!

Carry on! I say to thee, you have
already fought and won! Regardless of
mere circumstance, you cannot be undone!

Carry on! I beg you now, the sun still
shines ahead for you! You'll bring the fire
and the light, a soldier good and true!

Carry on! I look ahead, you have
not given up! Despite the battle
menacing, the obstacle abrupt.

Carry on! I smile now, I know
triumphant heart. So what can come, assail
you here? You'll win and they'll depart!

Carry on! You've done just that, your
bravery does reign! Look now - tomorrow comes
for you - this too shall pass, but you remain!
