The Song of Growing Up

 Rather, be uncertain.
 Only then
 do you begin to learn something new.
  
 Rather, fall apart.
 Only then
 do you begin to heal.
  
 Rather, despair.
 Only then
 do you begin to make the right decisions.
  
 Rather, grieve.
 Only then
 does the heart teach us to be brave.
  
 In this moment
 whatever you are,
 however you are,
 hide none of it.
  
 What you are,
 you are.
  
 The power to transform yourself
 you possess,
 always have.
  
 Let the world speak.
 Show the world.
