Reaching out, into the sky
If you say the sky’s the limit, then I’d say you’re right
Life gives you chances at every door
How we’re gonna use them is the chore
If you wanna achieve, then you better believe
Just make sure that you don’t concede

You start to feel down, you start to feel low
But I’m telling you now, don’t tell yourself no
Just dig in your soul, and find your goal
Eventually your passion will surely show
Just start something, make it function
Anything can happen in your imagination junction
Keep your head held high, and use a smile
Life may be hard, but you can stand the trial

Reaching out, into the sky
Chase your dreams, and never let them die
Just do your best, and you’ll succeed
Determination is all you need
Don’t lose hope, don’t give up
Just let motivation fill your cup
My first poem I ever wrote.  It got second place in a community poetry project, so I figured you guys could appreciate it as well.

Don't you dare abort the thoughts you can't raise!
Note them down! we're all here to praise!

when everything is too much to bear
and you think everything is falling apart in the air.
you must remember,
i'll always be there somewhere.
remind yourself and swear,
that everyone has the chance to repair.
sometimes we fall ensnare,
but one thing you should always forswear:
you are unique, you are rare
and you deserve all the care.

pain is a proof that we are alive.
that in any order, we always strive.
we sometimes contrive,
but we always remember to thrive.

we are willing to do anything just to survive.
in any deep seas, we are willing to dive.
even if it is pain that we derive.
for pain is a proof that we are alive.

I'm writing to make you smile

hoping you, reading, understands
Im really eager to give out an open hand and hug you

Hello Poetry Reader its nice to meet you!
Weve never met yet, but give me the shape or form you want, Im your mother and you father, your kin and friend. And Girlfriend or Boyfriend.

I sense unlimited talent in you,
did you know we are all quite like gods ?

Yet we are so small
were tall.

Im a young person from Europe irl,
wishing to make you happy.

Im not religious, this is my prayer for you.

Ive never done this, but it feels so good wishing you the best.

You should try it too.

I wanted to write a poem,
but was in one of those moods where
you have the title out before the body.
A Head-only beast.

At least here it is.

I wish you happyness!

See you around,

T.

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take  
Regret
The feeling that makes your stomach ache
Regret
There’s no way to shake
Regret
You can try to change until you’re blue in the face
Regret
No steps back in time
No second chances
Regret
Go with your gut
No regrets

Take that shot
No regrets
  Be yourself
No regrets
Stand out proudly
No regrets
No hesitation no second-guessing go for it all
No BS’ing
Climb the mountain
Take that homerun swing
Just remember this one little thing
No regrets

Go big or go home   In whatever you do
Don’t let that feeling overcome you
Because once you do it will hold on tightly  
It will weaken us all even the strong and mighty
And so I leave you with this please don’t forget  
Live life to the fullest
No regrets

Keep on absorbing!
Do not stop
Keep on absorbing!
Till you're at the top
Keep on absorbing!
if you dont want to drop
Keep on absorbing!
Like a mop
Keep on absorbing!
there will come a time for you to squeeze it out.

I know of no man, throughout the history of mankind capable of escaping the duality of existence. That of Spirit and Flesh; Ether and Clay.  Except maybe those of fictional characters imagined from the minds of drunkards and wretched souls . I myself have sought out ways to escape this madness only to find myself behind the bulwark of my inevitable being, but I now urge myself to delve deeper, deeper into the hole of darkness away from the gleaming ideals of perfection.
I too am wretched, drunken, and my lips, darkened.
