no resolutions
just trying to get stronger
one day at a time

Parched skin becomes moist
With dew drops dripping down the back of my neck
And beneath my *******

My face deepens like a ripe peach
As flesh disappears
Skin dissolves into

                                 Nothing.

A cool exterior warms
And my body is tingling, trembling,
Buzzing like a thousand fire ants
Swarming around my thighs
My arms
My core

Encapsulated in sweat,
This shell is a temple
One that thrives on progress

I am *****

I am filthy

I am strong.

I spoke with testosterone,
and after he ripped apart
the concrete in my driveway,
he sank into a pile of rubble.
Lighting an ironic cigarette, he said,
"Teach me how not to care"
before he fell asleep.
He's been there for a while.
Maybe we should check on him?

Need that for life
Got to do it
When you wanted to lose weight
In the gym
Have to work hard
for Workout to be done.

Why losing weight off ya body?
Because it called "workout"
And being healthy is good
But don't eat too much fry things
Cause it can damage your life
Strength and Personality.

Workout is healthy
Healthy is workout
So be healthy and exercising today.

it rarely occurs to me
how beautiful one can be
yet those who truly stand out
do not receive the recognition they deserve

a pretty face will get you many compliments
a slender body will too
but that is all you will get:
words words words
and though they can have a thousand meanings
they will never be enough
because people throw their words out with insincerity
for convenience

i want to move people
i want to make people feel things
and after long hours of contemplation
i now know what i truly need
i need not a pretty face
nor a slender body,
but i need a beautiful heart

a heart that opens up for the worst of the worst
a heart that loves unconditionally despite its painful past
a heart that pieces up broken others before itself
and you are beyond blessed to own that heart

so if you ask me who you are to me
well, you're the most beautiful person i know

Pushing forward for another me,
Pushing through the pain,
Towards the goal i see,
Refuse to remain the same.

Enough of the cutting,
Enough of the hurt,
Enough rebuffing,
Its time to be alert.

I decided to change,
I'm sure that i can,
Sick of feeling strange,
I have a new plan.

Mind over matter,
Push to the edge,
Don't be a slacker,
Just breathe and stretch.
