Grasshopper

Grasshopper, sweet grasshopper, it is time to go,
for you have mastered your lessons, and your confidence shows,
remember our words when your life was held low,
now practice the love that we instilled in your soul.

I would be lying if I said your future would no longer see pain,
and that everything works like in the dreams we create,
so watch your shadow even as you fly high in the sky,
for not all are as pure hearted as you and I.

Grasshopper, sweet grasshopper, it is time to go,
always remember that I love you so.
