So Be It

Impregnate me boldness,
Show me the courage,
Teach me to persistence,
Cover me with the robe of gallantry,
Let me brave before the fighting.
Do not take me the salt of Earth,
The blue sky,
The green of forests,
Or the colors of flowers.
I want to feel the sun,
See the stars,
Hear the waves,
Once more.
I want to be,
Grow up,
Ripen.
I want to live,
Writing:
Dignity.
So be it.

ABOUT THE POET ~
I am a brazilian poet. I believe that we should learn to feel the essential, no more and no less, just the essential.
