In your hands

Hope is a good thing
And no good thing ever dies
Don’t think when you sing
Because no song from the heart ever lies

Feel everything
Because you never know what might surprise
Give each thought a wing
Because nothing succeeds before hundred tries

Don’t lose your zing
Without it nothing ever flies
Hear each string
Because you must know the lows and highs

Keep moving
No one else, only you need replies
Try, as many smiles as you can bring
Because in the end, there is no bigger prize
