Coach's Creed

​I can coach you on a box
I can coach you with a fox

I can coach you in a glove 
While I help you fall in love

I can coach you on a plane 
And you will never be the same

I can coach your pain away 
Even on a rainy day
I can coach you while I mop 
And boldly tell you "Sis, just STOP!"

Heck I can coach your boyfriend too 
And tell him what he's gonna do
I'll always guide my seeker home...
Even on a speakerphone!

You will trust me from the start 
Just because you see my heart
We can go with your emotion 
Or fear of swimming in the ocean
It matters not where we begin 
For we will always arrive within

The answers that you've always sought 
Are in the middle of your knot
I will not give you something new
I'll simply help you rescue you
And when you find that inner peace

You'll also feel your pain release

The warm hug in the midst of trauma
The calmness in the midst of drama
The weight lifted off your shoulders
The wisdom of yourself when older
The innocence of your younger being
The purpose that will give you meaning

I heard your cry to end this all
But you won't give up while I'm on call
If my mouth works, you'll hear my tongue
If my heart beats, you'll feel my lung
For I will give my breath to you
I will take the steps with you

I've been sent to fight for you
I'm here to give more life to you
I'm here to end the night for you 
I'm here to spark the light in you
I'm here to send your love to you

I'm here to show your soul to you

I will not let you fall today
I will not let you fade away
Not on my watch, not while I live
You'll always get what I've to give

It might seem like it can't be done
You might think that it won't be fun
But when you reach the other side
Your heart will swell with joy and pride
And know that while you're still imperfect
Your painful falls have all been worth it

No need to thank me, your smile's my gift
Your happiness gives my soul it's lift
For I go on this journey too

It's who I am
It's what I do
