Just the Way You Are: A Poem for Berrin and Everyone Who Feels Like Giving In

Baby, don’t cry.

You were born to fly.

Baby, don’t be shoved.

You were born for love.

Baby, please wait.

You were born to be great.

Baby, just stay.

I’m coming your way.

 

So when you feel alone,

Know you’re not on your own.

When the world puts you down,

And you fall to the ground,

Please remember me

And all I can see

In you,

Precious you.

 

I see you,

Beautiful you.

I hear you,

Wonderful you.

Born to fly.

Born to touch the sky.

 

I see you,

So precious you.

I hear you,

So lovely you.

Born to love.

Born to rule from above.

 

I believe in you.

I’m receiving you.

I’m cheering you.

I’m hearing you.

 

When your parents forsake you,

Precious darling, I’ll take you.

I love you

Just the way you are.

I love you.

You’re my shining star.

I love you

Just the way you are.

I love you. 

Baby, you’ll go far.

 

I see you,

Beautiful you.

I love you,

Wonderful you.

Born to fly.

Born to touch the sky.

 

I see you,

So precious you.

I love you,

So lovely too.

Born to love.

Born to rule from above.

 

Your voice is precious.

Your voice is beautiful.

Let me hear it.

Let me near it.

Your voice is priceless.

Your voice is wonderful.

Let me hear it.

Let me cheer it.

 

You’re like the first blush of spring

That brings beauty to everything.

You’re like the sun rising in the sky,

Releasing joy to spread so high.

You’re like the stars twinkling above.

Baby, you were made to shine and to love.

Keep lifting your eyes; keep looking up.

Don’t give in to the evil voices; don’t give up.

 

Fill my ears with your words;

I promise you’ll be heard.

I’ll fill your heart with my love,

With glowing promises from above.

Let’s fill our days with our dreams.

Life is more than what it seems.

Take my hand and dance with me.

Let’s run towards the future so free.

 

I celebrate you;

It’s so very true.

I celebrate your life;

Don’t give in to the strife.

I celebrate your breath;

Don’t give in to death.

 

Keep fighting.

Keep writing.

Tell me your stories.

Sing me your songs.

Keep on going

All the dark night long.

 

I promise the sun will rise tomorrow.

And love will arise to brush away your sorrow.

I promise I’ll stay by your side.

I’ll be your secret place where you can hide.

 

I see you,

Beautiful you.

I love you,

Wonderful you.

Born to fly.

Born to touch the sky.

 

I see you,

So precious you.

I love you,

So lovely too.

Born to love.

Born to rule from above.

 

When your parents forsake you,

Precious darling, I’ll take you.

I love you

Just the way you are.

I love you.

You’re my shining star.

I love you

Just the way you are.

I love you. 

Baby, you’ll go far.
