What is the definition of beauty
Many have wondered the same
We use this word often but seldom know what it means

People say beauty is on the outside
The shape or tone of your body
****** characteristics and hair
Maybe even the color of your eyes

Others will say it's on the inside
How caring and geniune you are
The intelligence of someone
Or it could be your affection

I will say although I can not define it
I have witnessed true beauty
I realise the definition of beauty is you

If at first you don't succeed try, try again
It could be a test you did poor on
Maybe it's a game that you can't beat
Even if it's as simple as tying your shoes
It almost never works the first time
So never give up

That doesn't mean you shouldn't change
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over again and expecting different results
The world gave us trys to find our mistakes and improve it
It is our job to find it out and change
If we don't change we get stuck in what the world uses to be instead of what it is about to be

The message is clear
Give all you have everytime
If that doesn't work try again
Never give up on the world:
Your dreams
Your aspirations
Most importantly never give up on your life
A childhood saying is a true message of life. I want this message to help those who feel hopeless and out of luck. The ones who are contemplating giving everything up

Some people think that life's not worth it
Maybe it's that they don't deserve it
But that's not true it's perfect
Life is a treasure that doesn't need any searchin

We all can amount to something
Even if we think life's worth nothing
Each individual is a diamond ring
Now marry your life give it some bling

Always know that someone cares
Even if you think that no one's there
Find the happy things that are so rare
Never let go of that bliss you can share

Let someone else feel that joy
Hope they find out that they can enjoy
It doesn't matter if it's a girl or a boy
No one's life should be a toy

Everyone is worth something always remember that
This is for the silent people that need help realizing that their life is amazing and that someone cares

Most don't want brown eyes
Instead they want blue like the sky
Or maybe its the green of a jade fly

I see them for the beauty they hold
Visualizing coffee and a day so cold
Or riding a horse whose stride is bold
In the end it's brown eyes with a story untold

Let's walk through nature on a fall day
See the colorful leaves of autumn play

The cool wind in our hair as we hold hands
The air so crisp blowing across the land

The crunch of our footsteps on the fallen leaves
We walk off the path and dance with the trees

As the Sun goes down and the moon rises
I put my arms around you and listen for surprises

We lay down ready for slumber
The days of fall bring such wonder
If only, if only

Friends by any name are a gift of life

Best, boy, or girl each prefix brings joy

Some people have friends in rife

You dont need 100 or even 10

Having one good friend is all you need

Friends bring happiness time and time again

Some people are not as fortunate and need morale

If you dont have a friend then grab my hand and I'll be your pal

Helping others is the best feeling
It's the high you should want
The drug to get addicted to

If I could I would help everyone
The poor
The sick
The abused
The unloved
And all those in between

My passion is to help
Sometimes I get caught up in helping others
I forget to help myself
I want to help you and anyone else

Everyone says they want independence
Not everyone knows what it is
I used to hate the thought of it
Now I find it gives me bliss

Independence allows me to think for myself
No one can tell me what to do
I find myself at peace in this time
Being alone isn't so blue

Independence is necessary
It teaches you true life lessons
You learn to survive without anyone else
And it gives you many blessings

I used to think independence came with loneliness
That simply isn't true
There will always be family and friends
They will be there through and through

I am finding my true self through independence
Maybe I will miss the company
But for now I'm filled with glee
The independence is what will help me find out who me really is
Jack Oct 2018
In a world full of pain look for pleasure

Hold on to the good memories and let them last

Life is special dont let anyone tell you different

The truth is life is better spent with others

Always know there is someone

It may be a friend, lover, or family member

Life is meant to be shared with company
Just some stuff going on in my head

I thought I would never miss it
I've gone this far without doing that
But now that I've thought again I do

I miss being around such a funny person
You could always make me laugh
When times were bad you made me feel good
From fun to romance I enjoyed it

I realise now that no one else has done that
Sure they were fun to be around
None of them were as amazing as you

This isn't a hateful or persuasive poem
It's the truth
It doesn't matter if this is seen it needed to be said

I want to feel that again and maybe this time it will work out
No success comes without failure
Just me putting my mind on "paper"
Jack May 2018
I seem so stressed, Im always looking at the positives and the best
It keeps me engaged while life is putting me to the test
If you asked what matters they write it on a check
Or you feel it in the sweat when you've fallen into ***

If dying is what it seems, then why does it always appear within my dreams
Trying to understand what the devil may be in
It works all the same everything feels like sin
Henny and Gin, always on one's mind
The truth is out there but it's so ******* hard to find
The grind of life causes us to choose vice
Whether its alchohol, tobacco, or maybe it's rolling dice
Nice is what you want to be but that won't happen
As long as you succumb to the evils that surround men
When we find our vices we give up on life
The evils of Lucifer causing us strife

When did relationships become a game?
It's all about scoring points instead of the ride.
It's now "love" you then leave you.

I don't want that...

I want someone to spend time with

Not centered on love making but caring and enjoying the person

When I look in their eyes I feel warm and at home

Someone to snuggle with knowing that *** is not the only thing on their mind

I want a true relationship, I hope that it sails one day
Why do people only care about *** instead of the person?
Jack Jul 2018
I hate small talk
Although it's a start
It's always the same questions
Those questions beg similar answers
"How's your day"
"Do you like the weather"

I want big talk
Two intellectuals conversing
I want to talk about space
The intricacies of clouds
The beauty of the world
Or even controversies

Let's all take the time to move from mere small talk to big talk
I'm just fed up with all of the small talks I've had recently

The untouachable stars twinkle and above the stream
They glisten as do a thousand diamonds
The stream gently flows as does silk through hands
Although cold, it refreshes and soothes all who embrace it

A cool breeze lifts you up into the sky
You see the treetops as reminders that there is more above
Each tree slowly waving goodbye through the wind
All the constellations greet you with a sparkle

The nocturnal animals come out and play in what is thought to be the dead of night
They sing and dance for the joy of life
The animals truly appreciate the wonders of night

At first there is silence
By listening closer you hear the insects
The insects despite demonization enjoy the night as well
Fireflies light up the area while cicadas play their song
You may also hear the howling winds
One would say they are haunting
If you truly listen you hear momentous stories
The stream speaks nonsense expecting you to interpret it into beauty

The night smells of what can only be described as relaxation
Some say it's cool like a frozen pond
Others will exclaim it is that of fresh dew condensing

Whatever it is to you is opinion
Every opinion of smell, sight, or hearing is correct nonetheless
The night is wondrous
Some choose to slumber come nocturne
You can find me in awe at the beauty of what is simply known as night
Jack Oct 2018
This is what happens when I think about you
I get in my feelings and
I start reminiscing
I guess it's just what humans do
Jack May 2018
A utopia is the perfect place
People say the world is not that space

When I look at the world I see it too
But that all changes when I'm with you

You are my utopia a perfect sight
You fill me with bliss all through the night
All the bad goes away and out of sight
Only the good stays and that's alright

There's no where else I would rather be
The best location is when you're with me
Jack Apr 2018
I came to learn, not to enjoy
The system was flexible
But I maintained and began to annoy
I conquered it and came with success
I still wanted more than just that
The system ensued in feelings of stress
Later in time I found my relief
Through someone that cared
And gave me a new belief
Life is more than just the hard work
There is more out there like love
But work is important in giving perks
Always remember veni, vidi, amavi...
I came, I saw, I loved.
Jack Jul 2018
I want someone to cuddle when the Sun goes down
They can give me a smile out of a frown
We can laugh together at seemingly nothing
Maybe they would dance or sing
I want someone to share fun times with
When I would leave I'd seal the day with a kiss
There wouldn't need to be words for me to admire
I could look at their face and never tire
Maybe someday I could find this person
But for now it's what I want you will find me searching
Jack Jun 2018
Who am I to judge or critique
Who am I to tell the truth
In part I am a human

Like all humans we will do wrong
It is a duty to now do what is right
We cannot judge a person on one wrongdoing
We should judge them on the good

In another part I am me
Being me is different than human
Finding out who that is is the challenge
We all need our own identity
Without it we cannot be judged at all

Strive for greatness
Do great things
Dont do them because others want you to
Do them because you want to
In the end you are the ultimate judge of yourself
Love yourself by loving others

— The End —
