The Souls We Lift

Gemini Designed

Heavy hearts require strong minds
to soldier through these trying times
Through the smoke, this star still shines
yet zealots are blinded by the light

Admire free men then choose your side
Reason, purpose — your only guides
In musty schools where evil lies enshrined
Thinking for yourself becomes a crime

This falling leaf of red reminds —
when my heart is heavy I stay aligned
My strength may fail but I still define
my life as the good and my virtue, divine
