I'm not a poet, i just pretend to be.
i string some words in a line
to make you understand the impact of my empathy.
to give you a sense of security, ambiguity
that manifests the power that only creativity can make you see.

this diction means only what you want it to
but you have to look inside yourself
to find that certain thing you really want to do.

Never limit where your mind can go.
don't give power to your hesitation
fuel imagination in a world of gray.
its the causation that gives you augmentation.
don't settle for simple non fiction
when the world can give you pure affliction

                     embrace it.

cause its that pain that makes you grow and
see the best in every situation.

its those vicarious moments that help to keep you on your feet.
you should never have to choose between
the person who they want to see and
who you truly want to be.

i know you but you don't know me.

                                          yet...

i've tried to be a thousand people in the time i've been alive.

the most important thing i've learned is that it pays to be yourself.

when everybody else seems to have their whole life figured out,
its hard to focus on what counts
when self-created clouds of doubt begin to shroud
the one thing you're allowed to be proud of and that thing is yourself.

i'm certainly not in the position to provide a dictionary definition
of overcoming opposition.
but my first hand admonition
is to have full faith in your own ambitions.

you have these dreams for a reason.
