I'm A Keeper

 I'M A KEEPER

(My mamma told me so)



You are the keeper

Of your own lighthouse.

If you want 

Your light to shine

You've got to shine

Your own light.

Shred your arrogance

Into tattered rags

As to take pride

In a clean clear lens.

So focus and amplify

The light within

And it will pierce the night.

You may warn others

Away from the rocky path

You have risen above.

You are a keeper.

  3. I especially like this part:
    So focus and amplify
    The light within
    And it will pierce the night.
    You may warn others
    Away from the rocky path
    You have risen above.
