They looked into my eyes
and said I know you have more
they raised the standards
not to change me
but to challenge me
sometimes we are capable of more
I love it when it leads to growth
that gets us closer to honoring our values
what does it mean to honor each other fully
because pleasing doesn’t serve me
I know sometimes you will irritate me
but that leads to being uncomfortable
with discomfort I have a choice
to play bigger or stay where I am at
so please keep looking me in the eye
look right into my heart
come with a belief so deep
that I truly have no choice
but to honor what I am capable of
to discover the undiscovered
to go further than I ever thought possible
I have it in me
and so do you
You make me stronger
and as I honor what
you see in me
I will be able
to look into my own eyes
and see what you
already see
I am uncommon
I am on a mission
I am always better WITH you
I can’t do it alone
I have it in me
So please please
keep looking into my eyes
and I promise
to do my very best
in every moment
to honor what you see
and when I don’t
I will apologize to both you and to me
for not fully stepping into
all I can be
what amazing game we can play
each and every day
when you look me in the eye.
