Life gets better
You have to believe
Have faith in the storm
Even as deep as the darkness
Things will get better
Persevere
The storm
Has an
End
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
The time is approaching
The time is near
The time is now
The time is upon us
The time is hear
Change is coming
The storm is upon us
Trouble is on
The horizon
There is also healing
People are changing
The world is becoming
More chaotic
More insane
Every minute
Its easy to get caught
Caught in the storm
With no way out
But through the trials
And the pain
People are seeing the truth
People are coming to the light
Accepting old truths
Accepting love
And the healing it can bring
Ahmad Cox Dec 2011
I have been around the block a couple of times
So it's pretty safe to say that I have seen a lot of things in my life
But what never ceases to amaze me
Is how people seem to be so easily led astray
And how easy it is for people to accept things
Without really thinking it through
There are so many things in this world
That just seem to be blatant
That a lot of people just don't seem to see
Or at least they just don't choose to accept it
They would much rather live in ignorance
Then to wake up and see what is right in front of their faces
When it comes down to it
Most things that are a quick fix
Are almost never really worth it when you actually come down to it
Most of the things that we tell ourselves
That make us feel like somehow we are better
Like our truth
Our way of doing things
Is the right way
And that everybody else
Who doesn't follow our way is somehow wrong
We are all humans
Just trying to find our way
And no matter how confused
Our lost
Our angry some people make me
Even I have to look back
And realize
That's just how some people are
And even though it might seem like
People are confusing sometimes
I have to be able to look back and try and understand
Where they are coming from
Ahmad Cox Jul 2012
I wish I could save myself from myself
by Ahmad ***
Sometimes I wish I could help me from myself
There are sometimes when I wish
I could go back and stop myself
From making those mistakes
That seemed so obvious after I have made them
Sometimes I wish
I could erase
All of the hurt I have ever caused others
The people and the friends that have come and gone
I wish that I could keep myself
From feeling hate towards others
I wish sometimes I could keep myself
From giving in to my urges
When I am feeling upset
When I am feeling low
And when I can even hear myself saying no
That I shouldn't
But I keep on anyway
I wish that I could help myself sometimes
To keep me from harming myself sometimes
But it seems like unfortunately
It just doesn't always work out that way
I end up hurting myself
And unfortunately sometimes I hurt others
But sometimes I think I just have to accept
That I am not perfect
And I am going to stray from where I feel I should be
And I am going to feel lost
And I am going to feel loss
And regret
And pain
Whether it be self inflicted or not
And that I just have to try and do my best
To try and become a better person
Than I was the last day
Ahmad Cox Apr 2012
We all have our own journeys to take
We all have a long way to go
We all have our own paths ahead
We all have our different points of view
We all follow our own way
We walk our own path
We have our own past
We have our own future
We all exist in the same time
In the same present
We go to the same place
We all go to the same source
We return back to the light
To begin everything anew
Where our paths converge
Where we are one with the creator
Where we are one with the source
Where we understand everything
Where we come back again
To try and remember everything again
We all walk our own paths
We all have our own futures
We all have our own trials
We all have our own crosses to bear
We all have the chance to grow and to thrive
And to get to do it all over again
Until our souls are ready
To return again
Ahmad Cox May 2012
Let a joyful noise
Fill this place
Let love rain down
And cover us with grace
Let the light come down
Let us sing and dance
Sing in praise
Sing out loud
Sing for our souls
Dance in the street
Cause we need to let
A little joy rain down
Let it rain over the world
Until we can't stop dancing
Until we can't stop singing
Until we can't stop rejoicing
Allow a little joy into your heart
You will be surprised how far it just might go
Ahmad Cox May 2012
Just forget about it
Forget your past
Forget your pain
Forget your future
Forget all the disappointments
The failures
The frustration
Forget about it
Let it go
Be free
And just be
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
No matter what happens
God is only a prayer away
Open up your heart
Let God in
To all of your heart
To all of your pain
Everything that has been
Burdening your heart
Give it to God
He wants to heal you
Offering comfort
To all of his children
That call his name
Ahmad Cox May 2013
You can be kind
And triumphant
At the same time
Sometime its the
People that speak
The most have the
Least to say and
Sometimes its the
People that don't
Speak at all that
Might have hidden
Truth and wisdom
In their eyes as they
Peer out and see
The world for what
It truly is and there
Are sometimes in
Life when we have
To understand that
Kindness and love
Is never a weakness
It is true strength
To truly feel and go
Out of your way to
Save or to help
Someone or to show
The love in your heart
To the people that need
It the most and being
Able to have that joy
That comes from
Knowing you can
Have a positive and
Healing influence on
Others and having
That empathy for
Others and truly
Feeling their pain
And wanting to
Give all you have
Too many times
We tend to see
These people as
Being weak and
A lot of times it
Is these people
That are abused
Or their help and
Kindness taken
For granted or
Taken advantage
Of but we need to
Begin to understand
That we need to start
Thinking more with
That inner kindness
And love and giving
If we are truly to
Find that inner joy
There are so many
People in this world
Who are in pain or
Who are sad or who
Need that extra hope
And faith in their
Hearts but they
Don't know where
To begin in their
Search so they find
Everything else to
Heal the pain other
Than looking at the
Heart of the issue
We all need to have
That kindness in our
Lives and feeling like
We are truly loved
And cared for and
Accepting ourselves
And others as well
As learning to give
Freely of what we
Have with each
Other so we can
Feel and receive
The healing hope
Inside of us as we
Reach out of kind
And giving ways
To the people around
Us and learn how to
Truly live in kindness
With others and truly
Living happily and
Triumphantly
Ahmad Cox Apr 2012
Sometimes all it takes
Is a simple act of kindness
To really make someone's day
Extending yourself to someone
To someone in need
Being that person
Who steps up for those
Who no one else will step up for
Being that person
Who wants to help because they see
That there are people who need help
And they know in their hearts
That they have the ability to help
Or a burning desire to make change
Where change doesn't seem to come very easily
Being that special someone
In someone's life
Extending yourself to others
In loving and kind ways
Opening up your heart
For the people
Who everyone else has shut out
Putting yourself in the crossfire
So that others can live a better life
Even if it means you have to give
Everything and all of yourself
In the process
Being willing to be there for others
To cry for them
To fight for them
To live in someone else's shoes
Sometimes all it takes
Is that first act of kindness
To really change people's hearts
To let them see the possibilities
When we all act a little kinder to each other
And protect the people in this world
Who need protecting the most
Ahmad Cox May 2012
Rapping at my door
Sometimes my thoughts
Come a knocking
At my door
Like a raven
Stealing in the night
Cold and dark
Intelligent and cunning
Knock knock knocking
Threatening
To drive me from my peace
Threatening
To drive me mad
Threatening
To make me feel
Like I might go insane
Rap rap rapping at my door
I wish that raven
Would stop knocking
Would stop knocking
At my door
So that maybe
I could get
A little peace
And quiet
From that incessant knocking
Ahmad Cox Jul 2012
Sometimes you have to label relief
To really be able to feel it
If you don't know what it truly is
To accept relief in your life
Or even be able to give relief
To someone else
You can never start to heal
Until you can label
And identify
Relief
Ahmad Cox Jun 2012
Sometimes you have to laugh
To keep from crying
Sometimes the weight
Can seem so heavy
That you feel like
The whole world
Is sitting on your shoulders
There are times
When we want to yell out
Letting go of all the anxiety
That living life can bring
Learning to laugh a little
Brightening up your heart
Learn to smile a little more
Open up your heart
Let a laugh out
Laugh at yourself
Its ok
To relax a little
And just smile.
Ahmad Cox Aug 2012
Whatever
Is burdening
Your heart
Let it go
Whatever
Is causing
You pain
Let it go
You don't have
To hold on
You can be free
If you set your mind to be
Let it go
Life is much easier
If you let it go
Ahmad Cox Jun 2012
Let life grow
There is a little
Tiny heart beat
Flowing life
Everything
Has spirit
A little heart beat
Life growing
Expanding
Always changing
Molding
The more
We try to
Confine
Predict
Control
The more
Things will become
Out of control
Let go
Life will grow
There is a little heart beat
That life that flows through everything
Connecting everything
We are all connected
Everything in the universe
Has its own beat
Has its own pulse
Everything flows
Everything has its own life
Everything breathes
Everything grows
Even the universe
Continues to expand
To grow
And change
All around us
Ahmad Cox May 2017
Let me love you
Let me love you stronger
Let me love you
Let me hold you in my arms

When you smile
The world opens up for me
When you laugh
The whole world takes notice
I just want you to know
That you have my heart
And I love you for always
As long you

Let me love you
Let me love you stronger
Let me love you
Let me hold you in my arms

When you love me
You love me completely
Your love is absolute
So strong is our love
I want you here always
Always to stand by me
I know our love is complete
As long as you

Let me love you
Let me love you stronger
Let me love you
Let me hold me in your arms

When life seems out of place
And I am lost in the storm
You always find me
And I am forever grateful
For the love you give me
Everyday when I need
It the most you are always
Right there waiting
With love so as long as you

Let me love you
Let me love you stronger
Let me love you
Let me hold you in my arms

When you love me
You love me completely
Your love is absolute
So strong is our love
I want you here always
Always to stand by me
I know our love is complete
As long as you

Let me love you
Let me love you stronger
Let me love
Let me hold you in my arms
This is based off of a song
Ahmad Cox May 2012
Let your hair down
Laugh a little
Its ok to let go a little
Life is a lot simpler
If you let your hair down
Relax a little
Life doesn't always have
To be so serious
Learn to laugh
And to dance
And feel the joy
Springing up
From every moment
Smile a little more
Its ok
You don't
Have to be afraid
Let your guard down
And just be happy
Ahmad Cox Jan 2014
Life always finds a way
by Ahmad ***
The green permeates
Gives life
Mixture of life and spirit
Rolling into one
Life propagates even in the harshest conditions
Life just want to be free
No matter what you do
Life always find a way
Even when it feels like everything has been burnt away
The green glow of life still flows on
Even in situations where there seems like life shouldn't be
In some of the harshest environments
Life still finds a way
Even in the darkness
Far away from the light
Life persists
It's a lot harder to extinguish life
Then we might think
Just as soon as we think we have a handle
When we start to feel like we have control over life
Life has a way of putting us back in our place
Life was never meant to be controlled
Life is meant to just be
If we allow life to persist
To grow
To flourish
We will find that life will do just fine
If we just let it be
Ahmad Cox Apr 2012
Every minute
Every second
Every hour
Life begins
Starting the seed to new life
Life is everywhere
Spreading out
Indestructible
Just as their is destruction
Death
Disease
There is always life waiting to spring
Life's spark
God's glow
Giving life giving breathe to everything
Life has seasons
Nothing lasts forever
Everything is changing
Just as one thing ends
Another begins
Just as one thing perishes
Life still moves on
Ahmad Cox Oct 2013
Life hurts sometimes
Sometimes life hurts
It can be hard to know
Which way to go when

It seems like life keeps
Piling up the troubles
When all you want to
Do is rest your head

From the storm that
Never seems to end
It can be especially
Hard when the ones

Who are supposed
To love and care for
You the most are the
Source of your woes

And trials and when
A friend is no where
In sight sometimes life
Can get so hard we want

To make it stop and put
An end to all of the strife
And worry that keeps us
Up at night but it is during

These times in our lives
When the storm seems
The heaviest when we
Need to reach inside and

Find that inner strength
That comes when we
Have faith that things will
Get better and all trials

And storms only last
A while before the sun
Comes out again and
If you have hope for a

Better dawn and a better
Tomorrow you can bear
Any storm and trials that
Life has to offer you in life
Ahmad Cox Aug 2012
My life is crazy
Life is crazy
Chaotic
The more
You try to
Analyze
The more
Life will show
Just how
Out of
Control
Random
Chaotic
Life can be
Just when
You think
You have
A handle
Life has a way
Of throwing
In a little bit
Of randomness
So you must
Be ready
Embrace the random
Embrace the chaos
When you do
You will start
To see
The crazy order
In all of
The random
Chaos
Ahmad Cox Mar 2012
It seems like life is interesting
You want to do your best
You want to know that you are making some sort of difference
That your life has some purpose
It can be hard sometimes
When it seems like one thing happens after another
It can get easy to get stuck in a rut
And to think that we can never do better
Than the position that we are in right now
It is very easy to let the world
Especially ourselves
Convince us that our lives are just one big mistake
Whether it be financial, physical, emotional
Whatever seems to be standing in our way
Its very easy to take that in
And to start believing that where you are
Is just where you are supposed to be
That there isn't really anything you can do
You just have to keep going along
Not really feeling
Just allowing life to bowl over us
To feel like things are just becoming more overwhelming
Going through life feeling like you are going from one crisis to the next
Never truly being able to move forward
Getting stuck in the mud
And not being able to come up for air
But I feel even though it seems like a lot of people are going through their trials
That as long as you are moving forward
Working to become a better person
Trying to make a difference
Healing the things that you need to in your life
Making the changes that you need to make
To get to that better point in yourself
Even though things might seem hard
As long as you are trying to get to a better place
You are actively trying to help and heal yourself
As long as you are trying to help other people in the process
You are doing ok
You can move forward with pride
Knowing that you are moving
And coming more into the light
Ahmad Cox May 2012
Lessons that I have learned along the way
Ahmad Cox Jan 2013
There are some people
That are stuck in life
That don't know how
To get out of the rut of
The rat race if the door
Was sitting right in front
Of their faces and there
Was a sign saying exit here
Or if their very lives and
Existence depended on them
Rejecting the rat race and
Finding the door for
Themselves they would
Rather eat the poison
And die than live
And be free from
The race of the grind
These people I call lifers
They have a "life" plan
Or "life" goals that they
Want to follow and
They have to follow
The road to success
To make it to the top
Buying into the "life"
Or the American dream
That is toxic and deadly
To begin with and will
Ultimately lead to the
Destruction of your
Soul and your mind
And yourself trying
To keep up with the "life
You have to be willing
To let go of the material
And let go of the rat race
And find the truth behind
Life and true happiness
Is to give and to receive
Rather than trying to
Take whatever you can
From whoever you can
Just to support your "life".
Ahmad Cox Dec 2012
Life spring up from everywhere
You can't stop the flow of life
Life is in the most unexpected
Of places if you know where
To look you will find that life
Is harder to extinguish or to
Control than we might have
Originally anticipated
Everything in the universe
Leans toward life and birth
Just as death and darkness
Can seem to overcome us
Sometimes life is still
Much harder to ****
Or to get rid of than we
Might know or anticipate
We must learn to flow
With life and let life spring
Naturally instead of trying
To recreate life artificially
Learning to trust in nature
And life instead of trying
To control or change it
To suit our whims and needs
I think we will find that if
We just allow nature to take
Its course we will be a lot
Better off than if try and
Control or manipulate it
Ahmad Cox Nov 2011
There is  light
There is darkness
Everything exists as duality
Just as there are those who will stand up to the oppressors
There are those who are oppressors
We all have the choice to accept the darkness and the light inside of us
We can't deny one part of ourselves without denying the other
We all have the ability to do wonderful things
To be that hero for someone in need
To be that person to stand up for those
Who don't have a voice for themselves
We all have the ability to spread peace
And to spread love
And to spread light wherever we go
But we also have this darkness inside of us
These tendencies that make us wonder
If humanity is really humane at all
There are wars
There is genocide
There is hatred
And even people killed in the name of religion
It can become easy to get caught
Stuck between the darkness and the light that is inside of us
It can become like a never ending battle
That rages and wars inside of us
But we must be willing to accept both parts of ourselves
To see the light as well as the dark
To be able to truly move forward
And to truly be whole
Because if we continue to fight ourselves
Not allowing ourselves to reach the light
That tells us which way is right
And which way is wrong
But at the same time being afraid of our own shadow
And fearing any negative thoughts
Or any negative influences that might come our way
We will be trapped in ourselves
Constantly fighting between the light and the dark
And not accepting the duality in us all
Ahmad Cox Jul 2012
Lights out
Good night
The sun has set
The night time hour
Has descended upon us
The night has come
The lights are gone
Lost in the night
When the lights first go out
It can be hard to see
Sometimes we can stumble along
Not knowing where we need to go
Tripping over and stumbling
Over any obstacle in our way
After a while
Our night vision kicks in
And we start to see farther
The night starts getting brighter
The obstacles in our way
Become more clear
We get to the point
Where we can navigate
Through the night
With relative ease
Life is a lot like
Switching the lights off
When things are the brightest
Some time we can stumble along
Not really knowing
Which way we should be going
Tripping over every obstacle
That trips us up
Or that falls in our way
But its once we have been in the dark
For a little bit of time
When we start to become
More adept at navigating the night
Learning to trust our night vision
Trusting our instincts instead of our eyes
Learning to trust the inner primal knowing
That guides you through those dark ravines
That guides you through those dark points
Learn to trust that night vision
That inner knowing
The inner faith
That will lead you through
The darkest night
When the light go out
Ahmad Cox Jul 2012
Sometimes
Life is as easy
As learning to listen
Learning to listen
To that little voice
The little voice in you that knows
We all have this little voice inside
The voice that leads the way
That tells us which way to go
When we can feel the most lost
We often don't take time
To stop and listen
We get so busy
We can often overlook it
And stop paying attention
But its when we take the time
To be still and listen
Thats when the voice will come
To lead you through the storm
Ahmad Cox May 2012
Little angel
Help to guide my way
Little angel
I know you are in my heart
Little angel
You help me spread my wings
Little angel
You live inside of me
Little angel
You connect me to the heavens
Connect me to my higher self
Connecting to the healing side of me
Little  angel
You are in every one's heart
Every one has a little angel inside of them
We just have to start
Paying attention to our little angel
To that angelic
To that higher
Healing part of ourselves
That knows
Ahmad Cox Apr 2012
Sometimes you have
To pay attention
To life's little moments
The pause between a breathe
That warm feeling in your heart
That tells you everything is going to be o.k.
Ahmad Cox Apr 2012
Sometimes
Its those little
Whole in the wall places
That can really take you
By surprise
Sometimes
Its life's little surprises
That can take us back
And give us a new perspective
Sometimes
Walking down that door
Or taking that extra street
Can lead you right where you need to go
Sometimes
Reading that right book
Or talking to that right person
At the right time
Can really make your day
And put things into perspective
Ahmad Cox May 2012
There is a little voice
Inside of our hearts
That shows us the way
That tells us we are whole
That tells us
We are worth it
That whispers
We are beautiful
We are worth
Fighting for
We can make it
Through another storm
Reminds us
Of our path
And where
We are really
Meant to be
There is a voice inside
That tells us which way to go
When all of the light has gone out
When all we can see is dark clouds ahead
There is a voice
That tells us
That everything is going to be o.k.
You can make it another day
Just hold on
Your troubles won't last forever
That comforts you
Through your deepest trials
Bringing you home
To the place in your heart
Where you can be free
Free to live
To grow
To cherish each day
We must learn to listen
To this small voice
It can feel like
We are all alone
But all we have to do
Is stop
Be still
Listen
And soon
That little voice
Will come
Speaking softly
Saying exactly
What you needed to hear
Ahmad Cox Aug 2012
Life is simple
We live and we die
What matters the most
Is what we do along the way
Its the lessons we learned
Its the people we have touched
The lives we have saved along the way
Living and dying
Loving and growing day by day
Until we return back home
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
Living Free
Can be as easy
As breathing
Taking in
Each life
Giving
Breathe
Be awake
Experience
Each moment
Breathe
Take the time
To truly
Experience
The joy
Of living
The joy
Of life
Stop
Breathe
Listen
To that
Voice
Inside
Breathe in
Breathe out
Don't forget
To take the
Time to truly
Breathe
Breathing in
Everything good
That is sustaining
That is of life
And letting out
All of the pain
The hurt
Everything
That keeps
You from
Living free
Ahmad Cox May 2012
There is a lot to do
Today in the world
So many things
That need to be fixed
It can seem overwhelming
Just thinking about
All the things that are wrong
You can lose your mind
Worrying about
All the little things
That need to be fixed
Losing your mind
To the chaos
Getting caught
In the stress
In the turmoil
Losing yourself
To the world
Losing it to the chaos
That is everywhere around us
Ahmad Cox Dec 2012
Life just keeps getting louder
The ever present noise and
Scream of the people on
The street like a never ending

Wave of sound that consumes
Us with its ear quacking roar
Making it harder to hear
Ourselves and making it

That much harder to hear
And understand others as
Well because we live in a
Cacophony of people

So loud in their own
Thoughts and so lost
In their own heads that
They can't see our hear

Anyone else in front
Of themselves anymore
Its very easy to get caught
In the loudness and the

Chaotic roar of the world
What we need to do is to
Slow down and listen to
Each other and actually

Be quiet for a change and
Actually listen to ourselves
And listen to the Earth
And listen to each other

Take the time to be still
Take the time to know
Your fellow neighbor
Take the time to find

That inner calm that
Comes from sitting
Inside yourself and
Taking the time to

Truly find out what's
Inside and once you
Do you will find a
Whole new way of

Thinking and a whole
New brighter and better
World than what we have
You just have to be quiet

If you be still and calm
And let the noise of the
Day wash over you like
Water flowing in a river

You will find an inner
Happiness and peace
That you have never
Found before and as

You begin to find that
Peace in yourself you
Can begin to share
That peace with others

Until the peace and love
In your heart continues
To grow as you begin
To let love and peace rule
Ahmad Cox Jul 2012
I used to seriously wonder
Why it seemed that
There were so many people
Who have relationships
Who are married
Who have just started relationships
Or have been in relationships
For a long time
When it seemed like
Everytime I tried to
Reach out
In a romantic way
It ultimately was in vain
Either they were too far away
Or they would ultimately find someone different
Leaving my hope
Dashed a little bit more
And even when I would try
To connect with someone close
Ultimately they would just end up being friends
Or it would peeter out before
It even got started
But as I started to ask why
God gave me an answer
You are meant to love a different way
Connecting with the people around me
In loving ways
Showing love and grace
To whoever might need it
Healing and loving
Many loves
As I move on
Learning to love
And to give love
To my friends
The ones I truly love the most
Ahmad Cox May 2012
Love for sale
I have love for sale
Its a little used
But its good love
All the same
I have love for everyone
One size fits all
Catch the bargain
While its still around
Everybody is trying to sell their love
Everybody has love for sale
Everyone is looking to buy some love
But sometimes
What glitters
Is not always gold
You have to be careful
When you sell your love
Who you sell it to
You even have to be careful
About who you buy your love from as well
But if you are looking to buy a little extra love
I have a little bit of extra love
To go around
Ahmad Cox Jun 2012
Love is like a blanket
Its wraps us
Protects us
Shields us
It warms us
It permeates us
Shelters us from the cold
The cold of the world
Protecting us from our hurt
Protecting us from the pain
Wrapping us in its warm
And healing glow
Giving us strength
To face the cold
To face another day
Ahmad Cox Jul 2012
Love like you mean it
Love completely
Love wholly
Connecting your heart
Loving life
Loving yourself
Sharing that love
With others around
Love like you mean it
Share yourself
Until love is all you see
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
Its ok
To love
yourself
You don't
Have to
Hide that
Inner love
And light
We struggle
Against the love
We often feel
Like we don't
Deserve to be loved
Every body wants it
Every body deserves it
We all are loved in our own ways
When the love expands in your heart
You can truly begin to love yourself
Accepting yourself completely and wholly
Seeing the beauty for yourself and accepting
The ever growing love, beauty, light,  and peace
Love yourself
Don't ever forget
We all are free in
Our own way
Ahmad Cox May 2012
Love your way
Don't let anybody tell you different
Love yourself
Don't let anybody tell you different
We are all beautiful in our own ways
Don't let anybody tell you different
Love your way
Don't be afraid
Even if the world
Might not understand
You will feel much freer
When you just love your way
Love freely
Love wholly
Until you fill completely full
Ahmad Cox Apr 2012
We all lust
We all have
That passionate part of ourselves
The ******
The sensual force
That lives in all of us
Driving us mad at times
Clouding our minds with passion
Thinking about it
How something as simple as touch
Can be so intoxicating
Even a look
Can drive you insane
From across the room
How even a thought can be enough
To drive you to distraction
Touching
Kissing
Living in the moment
Reveling in the touch
In the pleasure
Joining as one
We all have lust inside of ourselves
It can drive us insane
Driving us to dizzying heights
We must embrace our ****** side
Embrace ourselves and even embrace our sexuality
Or else we will live repressed
Afraid to connect to our more ****** side
And ultimately denying our bodies as well
So live passionately and lust to your hearts content
As long as you are all having fun
Ahmad Cox Aug 2012
Make me over
Heal me
So that
I might see you
Make over my heart
Make me new
Heal my soul
I want you to
Remove the darkness
Remove the pain
Make me new
Make me over
In your image
Make me over
So that your light
May shine a little brighter
Shining through me
So that every one can see
Make me over
Change me and heal me
Until your spirit
Is all I see
Ahmad Cox May 2012
We need to be
A little more aware
Of what we do to ourselves
It can be easy
To let ourselves go
Hurting ourselves
In different ways
Dishonoring ourselves
Sometimes
We can feel
Like we aren't
Worth fighting for
That we don't deserve any better
Than where we are
Sometimes
It can just seem easier
Not to care
Not to care about ourselves
Or not to care about others
I think
It can become easy
Easy to get lost
So lost in yourself
That you can't see
The trees
Or the sun
Or the breeze
Or the sky
Or to see
Just how beautiful
We all really are
In our own ways
Coming to
The understanding
That we are all here
We all have our place
We are all connected
In our own ways
We just have to search inside
To find the answers we need
To make it through another day
Ahmad Cox Jan 2012
Marble and stone
Hard and rigid
Some people
Are like marble
And stone
They are so rigid
In themselves
And in their ideals
That they can
Not compromise
They would
Rather crash
Break
Destroy
Everything
And everyone
Around them
Just to keep
From having
To move from
Their own rigid
Ideals
The same ideals
That confine them
And restrict them
Keep them from
Moving forward
And being able
To understand
How life really is
But sometimes
It's good to be broken
So that you can be
Remolded
And to change you
Into the person
That you were
Always meant to be
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
Marian is the
Princess of the fairies
Spreading her love
On gossamer wings

Helping those
With broken wings
Teaching them
To fly once again

She is the healer
Of hearts
Helping those
Who have lost
Their way

Carefully gliding
Them back again
As she extends
Her heart to others

Showing what
It is to truly love
With each new heart
She touches with

Her unbridled joy
And grace
And wisdom
Helping all Fairies

Big or small
Find their way
Teaching them
How to soar and fly
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
We all masquerade
Putting on a daily show
Hiding our real selves
Ahmad Cox Mar 2013
There is a master mind
A hidden intelligence
Behind everything and
Whether we perceive or
Not this spirit or entity is
Here for us to learn and to
Grow and to learn the ways
Of the master if we are able
To learn the masters way in
Life even though it is never
Easy it is always worth it in
The end and it is why we
Continue to struggle and
To learn and to grow and
To do it all over again as
We learn a little more
About ourselves and how
To truly live free with love
And complete openness and
Connection with everything
And everyone that you meet
And understanding that life
Is a lot less complicated than
We make it out to be and we
Can live without fear or hate
Or even anger in our hearts
And we can be truly free and
Full of joy and love if we follow
The master the master will show
Us the way to the master's heart
And promise for a better tomorrow
And a better way to live today right
Now and for eternity as you learn
Your final lesson and depart again
To return to learn the lesson all over
Ahmad Cox Jun 2012
Matter and spirit
Are intertwined
Love
Flowing
Connecting
Permeating
Through
Everything
Every molecule
Every atom
Everything
Contains
Spirit
The breathe
Of life
That exists
It exists in everything
There in the creation
From the very beginning
There now
Permeating everything
There until the end
We just need to see it
Be aware of it
See the heart
Of everyone
And everything
To truly see
When you do
You will understand
Everything
We have been fighting about
Everything
We have been doing
To separate ourselves
Are all illusions
We are no more separate
Than our cells are from our body
We are no more separate
Than our souls are
That connect us to everything
Yet identifies us
As our own
