If you Aspire to be successful and Dedicate yourself,
Then you will meet your Goals.
However, If you succeed
And fill yourself with Greed,
You are living a life full of Failure.

-Willie Rios-Gonzalez

I know you can do much better
So stop over thinking and pull yourself together
You'll be anxious and frightened
But with prayers, your path will be lightened

Dont base your success to other people
Dont make yourself look so small
Your fate revolves in your hand
So be firm to where you stand

Conquer all your fears in this world
And life will never be that cold
Start building confidence
And plan success in silence

Follow what your heart really desires
Speak out the real things that inspires
Be someone whom you thought you would be
Cause its not yet too late to say "thats the real me!"

let me tell you,
do not stay in a relationship
that makes you questioning your
worth, or a relationship
that feels like a big question mark.

you deserve someone who loves you
without looking back,
someone who does not make you
a second best or option,
someone who does not involve
you in the comparison game.

because you are not a void filler,
you are not a backup plan,
you are not a second choice.

let me tell you your worth
and what you deserve;
you are a galaxy with all its beauty,
you are all the best parts about art.
you deserve someone who is willing to give
the world to you.

you are not your deep scars
in your skin.
you are not the damage that cannot be fixed.
you are not a tragedy that
cannot turn into peace.
you should know,
you are a garden of flowers
that will never be withered, and faded.
you are the moon,
the stars,
and the sun in this universe.

i know,
you do not see it in yourself,
but those all are what i see,
in you.

every girl in this universe
is made from flowers.
please,
do not be afraid to bloom.
make them see,
freeze, and stare.

"Who gets to call the shots matters,
but so do YOU.
So turn up,
take YOUR shot
and - be - your - most - excellent."

we are all beautiful
even if we are lonely
just like the moon.
and even in the darkness
we still shine so bright
from within.
again,
just like the moon.

dear, settle not for inauthentic love
find a poet who keeps your soul ablaze
someone exists who fits you like a glove
and will love you for who you are, always

it is not too much to ask for romance
candle-lit dinners, **** notes, warm baths
there is a power in love at first glance
but true romance keeps your journey on path

so keep your chin up and find a poet
for they will know love, and how to show it

your inhibitions have never made you attractive
the vapid silence adds value only to the weaker
who dislike a challenge or good conversation
so leave behind your moments of shame
or self conscious memories of low self esteem
become the person you desire to be
rather than the one who's role you've been playing
all these years
once you learn to let go you will be able
to move on with reckless abandon
natural and beautiful
and find the love and happiness you crave
within yourself
