We used to have dreams, goals, hope in our bone.
Now all we have is problems, we’ve created on our own.

you were there
when no one seems to feel good
a bucket list of dreams in a world
that can’t be tame to show the greatest fear;
can only be risk by being brave
on how much you sacrifice;
the willingness to achieve whatever
the purpose & reason to live
life to its fullest
begets
the marking sign
of passion
that you had in you;
it’s always been there
but you gotta learn to corporate with it
because it is
in the field
of growing, learning
that will map & feed you to your soul.

From the time of ash and flame
I have found a life again
Upon the coals and to the top
None shall ever make me drop
Holding fast and standing free
I have found that which is me
A climber
Yes
I'll send it
You'll see

The wind is trying
To pick up its pace like a
Goal longing to form
Tristan Brown Nov 2017
Strength is measured by numbers
Numbers give us goals
Goals we can strive to reach
The higher the number
The stronger we're perceived

Only physical strength uses numbers

Mental strength
Emotional strength

Neither can be measured
With a unit

I write this as another poet sings,
And her words keep tying into mine,
But I flick them out of my knots.
This is from me, for you, for all of time.

Your ladder goes higher than the next few,
And so your journey is more strenuous and long,
But I never worry about that.
I know you'll reach your finish line, where you know you belong.

I will reach down when I can, but often I cannot,
My hands are preoccupied but I can try to balance,
And if I'm unable, I'll call upon others,
And you will reach brilliance.

A family.
A bond.
Having the same goal.
Fighting the same fight.
Fighting poverty.
Within in the US.
We are men and women.
With a passionate heart.
An empathetic heart.
We join hands.
In this journey that
Has just begun..
To save the world.
One, block...
One town..
One community..
One state...
At a time..

We are Americorps Vista!
Got sworn in today!!! Thank you Americorps!!!

You know I love you , right ?
& That I think you're amazing .
I just can't shake this feeling ,
It's becoming unsettling.
The way I've become so
Possessive over you .
The lack of trust is the cause.
I wish you hadn't lied ..
Then apologized..
Then lied again .
Why the hell did you make this **** so hard .
I said I would stay so you're expecting me to TRY .
But sometimes it's hard for me to try when YOU got us in this bind .

I hate english weather when it's raining all day...
I hate the wind, but still, I wish it could stay...
I hate it because leaves are drinking all the rain...
And they are keeping me in world's deepest pain...
I am asking rain over and over kindly to cease...
Cause manhood is suffering from the darkest disease...
Love and mercy had gone, faded away...
Me... and you... everyone is to blame...
But we should be thankful, for the heart-blessing rain...
And trying to be better, do not never complain...
Make love happen, take everything under control...
It's our life, so we must have this goal...
We should be still, and stop our eyes from crying...
Because behind clouds the sun is always shining...

(So, I wrote this poem on my trip, on the bus...
Maybe it's not perfect... please don't make any fuss...)

With a single step
Lofty goal’s become clearer
Dreams hover nearer.

Is that rock just a roadblock
Or another stepping stone?
