To laugh is to embrace the absurd,

To cry is to release the pain,

To reach out is to find a hand,

To feel is to truly remain.

For in the risk, the soul takes flight,

In every chance, a newfound light,

In every dare, a victory bright.

To expose your heart, a brave display,

To show your soul, a vulnerable plight,

To bare your truth, come what may,

To shine your light, a radiant sight.

To dream a dream, a bold desire,

To voice your thoughts, a fearless stand,

To face the crowd, a burning fire,

To plant your seed, across the land.

For in the risk, the soul takes flight,

In every chance, a newfound light,

In every dare, a victory bright.

To love another, a tender grace,

To give your heart, a selfless space,

To risk rejection, a humble face,

To find connection, a warm embrace.

To live each day, a precious art,

To face the unknown, a willing heart,

To chase the sun, a brand new start,

To play your part, to truly impart.

For in the risk, the soul takes flight,

In every chance, a newfound light,

In every dare, a victory bright.

To trust in others, a leap of faith,

To open up, to meet your fate,

To mend the bridges, seal the gate,

To elevate, to consecrate.

To try and fail, a lesson learned,

To rise again, a spirit burned,

To strive for more, a path discerned,

A life affirmed, a soul concerned.

For in the risk, the soul takes flight,

In every chance, a newfound light,

In every dare, a victory bright.
