there's
no
cure
for
the
disease
you've
given
me.
I'm
simply
showing
symptoms
of your neglect.

Darlin,
It doesn't matter where we dance
just so you know we'll make
our own music.

Let's flip our dreams into our reality
Of course, it would require tenacity
But we cannot belittle our abilities
Mediocrity is a self-created enemy

With blood, sweat, and tears
We've enough ink to paint our destinies
If only we would look beyond our fears
And reach for our shining galaxies

Then, our dreams will be our everyday living
A single step of faith ignites more steps
In the direction of what we've envisioned
This is the time, no more procrastinating

It's high time we got the ball rolling
Mistakes are part of the growth process
The future begins from now
Dreams are for living; a verb, not a noun!

Sometimes
                 you   just
                 have to be  
                 your  own
                 hero. Some
           days you just have
              to create your
                       own
                  sunshine.

                    Do not
            judge your story
                     by the
               chapter you
              walked  in  on.
          
                 Life  always
                       offers
                you a second
                   choice. It's
                       called
                  tomorrow.
                        And
                       when
            tomorrow arrives
                 keep a smile
                     on your
              face. It's the best
                    accessory
                         you
                    can wear.
                                                                                              Jon York   2019

Hey, you
Yeah, you
the one way over there
ensconced in tall grasses
where do you
think you are
going
you extend a hand
and loving heart
to so many
and so few
see your brokenness
your pieces of shattered
glass from
all four of those
muscled-*****
blood-flowing
chambers in your chest
              all over the floor
And Hey
I see you
I see you deep
Your molecules rising
Up unto
that soul's
brightness and
so beautiful
outlook
wisdom gained
from time
mixed with pain
             and rhyme
Hey
Let me
wrap my tendrils
of healing all and up
around you
right through you
Hush
No need to talk
         Just let me
press my
blood-pumping heart
right into
        yours
Feel it
Let my light
infuse you
Let me touch you
deep into
under skin
just like
you
    touch
            me
