The problem isn't you,
in fact, there's nothing
wrong with you.
Stop blaming yourself
for things that others did
or things you could not control.
Do not question your worth
by the way others treat you
or making comparisons.
Do not second guess yourself
just because others choose to leave
or because they choose to lie.
You are doing well,
do not doubt yourself.
Just keep on going
Rise up through the air
Believe that you can do it
Make sure that your path is clear
Let no one push you to the side
Elevate yourself with great strides
Excellence is within you
Keep your eyes on the prize
Have the strength to reinvigorate
With zeal and vitality
You have it all from within
Utilize that gift wisely
Change your mindset
Execute effectively and efficiently
All of the tools are there
Go forward and build yourself collectively
You may stumble and fall
But, you still have to get back on track
Always lift yourself upward
And be the leader of the pack
Find the strength and courage
To rise above it all
Just find yourself accordingly
And learn to stand tall

Oh, my sad prince
I can see the dark in your eyes
It's closing in again, isn't it?
Cutting off the sun and blackening the skies.

I hate to see you this way
So downcast and forlorn
No one else sees it,
They neither weep nor mourn

I used to fear
that I'd see nothing more
That the light in you would die
And you'd lose the fight and the war

Now I know there is more
I see something in your eyes
Not pain, not misery
But an idea on the rise

You found your way out of the dark
All you needed was a paper and pen
So don't lose hope, my love
For the light will shine again
"Hikari" is Japanese for "light"
Of a sentimental nature
Always show that you care
Be there for the little students
And continue to be sincere
They need you to be their mentor
That guides them faithfully
Teach them to never give up
And to take responsibility

I have a dream, I am a dreamer.
I dream to become a writer
who can inspire other
So can I be your motivator?

Because I am a survivor
From my past irrational fear
Which I've been suffer
From what they called disorder.

I love writing, especially when I'm inspired
But all stories, poems and words are hided
Hid by fears and worries which I had
I am afraid of what people say unfiltered

I am worried about what people say in my works
So I choose to keep all my works in my notes
And preferably keep silent when I write
Until my dream starts to fell apart

I waste a lot of opportunities
Time and more chances
To show what God gave from me
Because I fear for nothing

We are here in the world full of potential,
To honor you, admired you and judge you
So don't be afraid to show what your talent is
Because not everyone is the same as you are

No matter what you are doing
People have words to say for everyone
Don't focus on negative
Just focus what your dream and passion is


Don't fear for nothing.
Have that self-motivation
Believe that you can do it
Take those steps forward
That my friends is the aspiring spirit
There is a way towards everything
It is all about the heart
Always make a good impression
Right from the start
My tiny world



I pull the cocoon all around me



But the light still



manages to get in



Oh I see....



I am made of stars too
Step outside of the box
And travel farther
Open your mind collectively
In order to make your visions sharper
Always lift yourself upward
And continue to shine brighter
Have that strong will
To reach even higher
