Don't Shut Your Eyes

They try to bury your smile when,

They hear your laughter.

They try to dim your lights when,

They see your eyes.

They try to sorrow your spirit when,

They feel your energy.

They try to get in your head when,

They see you zen.

They say things,

They make things up.

They make your peace turbulent when,

They see you calm.

Just like Irma before it hits West Palm,

They do things.

They cook things up,

Don't let them steal your lights.

Don't let them take your spark,

Don't let them in your head.

Don't shut your eyes!
