BE.

Grow in the darkness — like roots in deepness

A darkness unseen by human eyes

Be planted

Dream in chaos — like beauty in a circus

A crazy time is the time to be free

Be ambitious

Laugh when serious — like kids in class

A silliness so light it’s contagious

Be careless

Love when hated — like hate doesn’t exist

A loveliness even adored by the jealous

Be honorable

Fight in weakness — like a warrior defending an empress

A strongness that builds the helpless

Be strength

And cry from happiness — like happiness is the sword for evilness

Be happy
