#goals poems on Hello Poetry

polyratic Sep 2020

Caught within
the cot I built
to slaughter
all the goals that fit

A miasma, thick
with success and stress
in growth, the wisest
call duress

on my throne
sits the black honed axe
seething at my fauna,
as I contemplate their imminent trauma

I'd rather watch them grow
as steel plummets to their throats
augmenting my flock of ghosts
enclosing the lonesome cot and throne

Mental duress, old and new.

Failure is a Success too

A thud sound
Of me falling?
From the sky height
Into the deep sea.
This internal unfamiliar silence of the waters below,
Is eating me up.
Can you hear me?
I scream with my throat dry,
I dream with my hopes high,
The shallow waters Don’t echo my voice,
So I'm letting go a deeper dive.
This external familiar voice of everything above the sea –
my success or failure?
Makes me bury myself into the truth more deep
Makes me worried of the soul which never came to me
So, I shut my eyes
See a bright yellow light
Run toward it to seize a whole new sight
Calmness of the internals
Don't excite my bored old soul.
But I still am worried about my past above the sea.
A swish sound
Of me rising.
Back from the deep sea into the high sky
Never thought I will give up of being shy
With a motive to live,
With wings to fly,
With a hope to dream,
Which my failure had taught me.

Reminding myself

I know i was born for something greater
than just wait and watch life pass me by.
I have a purpose i feel deep within my core;
A need to fulfill every time my heart screams
"don't settle, not yet".
I believe i can be all i want to be,
All i need to do is hear my calling
in this suppressed world of illusions.
I don't know how far i can go
but i won't stop trying.

You will always find people especially loved ones who will not always support your dreams, but if you want it bad and it gives you chills, know that it is the right thing to do. Don't dishearten yourself with failures, it is the most vital part of your progress.

I am a poet

I am a poet.
I feel emotions deeply but i do not show it.
Words sway my soul as my thoughts roll with the tides.

I feel deeply but it is masked by disguise.

Kites fly
when the wind carrying your words
Touches them,
And with them they take the dreams
that align
the stars in your eyes.

Whenever you speak of the things,
you wish to do

TIME

To achieve anything in your in imagination all you need is time
Peace by peace bit by bit let gravitation fly....

Coz All you need is TIME.

Do It

A bright idea illuminates your mind
"I'll do it when I get the time"
Is what you say when you defend
Your busy schedule of tasks you resent

Your tasty theoretical lemonade
Made from the lemons that came your way
Would quench your thirst for success
If you would only take a rest

Is it healthy for you to be stuck
In the 9 to 5 generational curse?
Working hard to make a living
When that living can be unforgiving

Nothing's too hard or impossible
Baby steps, no need to stress
When to you the path is visible
You just need to do your best

The fear you harbor in your heart
Is not because of your limit
But it's because of someone else's goals -
You're afraid that you won't reach it.

Your template is your latest high score
No them, just you versus you on the floor
If you fall you'll get up, that's the spirit
All you need now is to just DO IT!

Refuse to make the same excuses
For not making the relevant changes
Because your kids won't inherit jobs
But they copy your mindset when you beat the odds

Just Do It (Poem inspired by young entrepreneurs)

"maybe next time"

you are
sitting there,
watching me
from the sidelines,
sipping on your lemonade,
telling me that
I can make it through

the blood
the sweat
&
the tears

however
when the timer runs out
you say
"maybe next time"
'cause the goal still wasn't made
