#successful
I have weathered the storm I've swam against the riptide was tattered and torn, turned in from the outside I didn't know how to swim, I was lost out to sea I had nothing to left to give and nothing left for me Lost in the black forest that was thick with trees For the weary, no rest heart weighed down heavily No bread crumbs or trails to show me my way Only the will to prevail Has saved me today

A girl so small,
turned into a beautiful woman.
A will so weak,
turned into a strong desire.
And I'll let you believe
that your little small girl
turned into a fire.
The fire ablaze,
makes everyone daze
and lets them get lost in a maze.
That girl is no more feeble.
That girl, though, is no more real.
But she is here, standing strong.
But she is here, proving them all wrong.

And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake me up in the middle of the night,
Just to hear them say,
"You can't do it throughout your life — yeah!"
But I've done it,
Yes, I've done it in time,
Life gave me lime,
I made a brine.
Now I'll add my favourite flavours,
Serve a lemonade to my critics,
I'll smile as they'll only admire me,
I'll stick to my roots and credit my parents.
But I'll not let success get onto my nerves,
My responses I'll keep terse,
Lengthier will be the poems,
Elaborate my every verse.
Some people get jealous,
A few people feel,
Others feel,
Positive.

Here alone
Far from my fellow kind
I stand by myself
But I am not lonely
Long ago I learned
Having more people in my life
Did not equate to
Having more friends
Being busier
Did not mean being more constructive
Or being more successful
That fulfillment comes from within
So now I gaze
Over a landscape filled with memories
Of family, friends and good times
I am alone, but not lonely

I'd love the way I'm eager & adrift
That's the only time to know confidently I Would lift!

"How do I become successful?"
"Are you alive?"
"Yes"
"Then you're already doing it.
Keep it up."

Fight for what you deserve
Keep going on & run
You're an aficionado of success
If you welcome aesthetics though!

Once upon a time
There was a passion,
Like burning fire,
Boiling water,
Saturated with desire.
The thirst of needing to be seen,
To be heard,
To be free as a soaring bird
Was unquenchable and
Unquestionable.
It was so clear
It ruled out the anxiety
And the fear
Of being judged
Being wrong
And being crushed.
Now that passion has burned out,
Drained,
Pale;
What is left is the anxiety
The possibility
To fail.

First commercially successful
Video game technology
Pong arcade video game
Made by Atari
Loved by millions instantly
Started an 80 billion dollar industry
Pong -no Ping-
Just Pong
Simplistic graphics still astound
Mesmerized by the sound
Blip
Blip
Pong, blip
Blip
Pong, blip
Pong, blip
PONG!!!
Hah! Point made
In the shade!
First to eleven
In Pong heaven
Blip
Blip

PONG!!!
A social lubricant it became
Relationships formed
Playing the game-
Rocking to our favorite songs
Staying awake all night long
Taking turns playing Pong
Pong -no Ping-
Just Pong

or

behind every successful woman,
is a little confidence and a heartbreak that changed her outlook on the world....

When Successful people, On stage
Tell that their secret of success is "Luck!"
Then unsuccessful people, Backstage
Yell at their own fate, ****

Maybe right now as you read this you’re feeling alone, friends nonexistent
Maybe you feel as if no one is ever going to love you because why would they?
Maybe you don’t see how someone can like someone who sees love as something so distant
Maybe all you’re trying to do is escape the society that is hunting you like their pray.
Maybe everyone around is growing up starting families and getting jobs
Maybe everyone is getting success while all you get is failure
and maybe all you can think is ‘what am I doing wrong’ when is it going to be?
Am I not allowed to be happy, am I not good enough as just me?
I won’t tell you that it’s going to be alright
People tell me that all the time, but they can’t promise me and I can’t promise you either
but I promise you that you are never alone and sometimes that can feel like a breather.

Out of all the things that my grandfather taught me, the advice that I will remember the most is: everything in this world is possible; everything that you can dream about can be achieved.
For you to reach your goals, live your dreams and be successful in life, you have to dedicate yourself and never give up.
It will not be easy to get wherever you want to go but it’s not impossible.
It will take time but you have to be patient and you must believe in yourself.
You cannot be afraid to be different from everyone else, this world seeks change, and if you work hard, you can be that change.
You will have to fight harder as the days go by for what you truly love and care about.
The world needs warriors who would go out their way to please and help others get through life.
You have to be good to others, but be greater to yourself.
You have to love others, but you must love yourself first.
I, personally, have to stop being afraid to love the people that I love.
I don’t know what it feels like to put my heart out there and give it to the ones that love me. I don’t know what it feels like to have my heart broken by the one I thought would never fail me.
But I do know that to love feels good and to be loved feels greater.
I know what it feels like when your best friend chooses something else over you.
I know what it feels like to let him walk away from me, from someone who would go out her way to do anything for him. Just to make him happy and please him.
I know what it feels like to see him everyday,
Walk by him and after everything,
After every advice,
After every smile shared,
After every well-spent time,
After loving each other unconditionally…
I know what it feels like to feel nothing at all.
I know what it feels like to not care at all.
I know what it feels like to be happy and loved again.

Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.

If love is successful,
It can translate as life.
If love is unsuccessful,
It can be deadly too.
If love is successful,
One may play the leisurely fife.
If love is unsuccessful,
One may start their countdown.
If love is successful,
It can bless a person.
If love is unsuccessful,
It will **** the person.

A turn of the torso in the hall
Be it to look back or forward
Past or beyond the past
Is not necessarily wrong at all
Unless of course the owner of the turn
Is twisting therein arrogance
Or with an unsettling voice
Which demeans all others in the hall
But if such a twisting diaphragm can actually sing
Then arrogance is more all the more tolerable
And not so much a problem at all
Because the sound will be beautiful
Even if the character is not beautiful at all

I love Grief.
Grief is the only thing that keeps humans going.
Happiness slows us down,
Sadness Hinders you,
Anger Blinds you.
Grief Gives you A Goal.
When Your Luck pops right back Up,
You will Succeed.

I wish God could send my dreams thru the mail
I wonder if he likes to see me fail
I wonder if i'll ever reach them at this point
It seems like everything is turning switching & flipping
I wonder if my dreams are too big for me
Or is that just the voice of misery & frustration creeping up behind me ?
What is there to do?
What is there to say?
If i pray for my dreams right now will they come in the mail today ?
These questions toss & turn in my mind daily
Trying hard not to let the voices lead me astray
Focus on my focus is what i say
Dreams upon dreams i see
Focus on your focus they said
Dreams upon dreams i saw
Tears upon tears i cry
Failure upon failure i felt
Dreams i saw
blurred out, i see no more
Tears fell, they saw
Dry your eyes they said
To write, is what i did
Are my dreams too much for me?
They arent here, as far as the eyes can see
When I go to sleep I see my dreams face to face in front of me
My older self she said, youre dreams are so big the most you can do is imagine, not physically see.
I took in what my older self said , then i said my one of a kind self just told myself my dreams so big only i can reach them myself.
Focus on my focus i say
Dry those eyes i say
Greatness i see
when i look at me
