Pain breeds empathy,
Do not just despise it,
Utilize it.

Pain is broken trust,
Pain is a smile holding back tears,
Pain is a must,
Pain is being ruled by your fears,
Pain is aiming for numbness,
Pain is seeking attention,
Pain is emptiness,
Pain is a deep emotion,
Pain is feeling lost in your own head,
Pain is losing sleep,
Pain is when good things fade,
Pain is deep.

It never gets old,
Even when the injury is nothing odd,
We never get used to it,
Its even worse when you can't even move to your favourite beat,
All you can do is just lay down on a seat,
Brings about anguish,
One which you can't really distinguish
From the previous one,
Because the feeling never gets old to anyone,
Makes us mad, >:O
And our loved ones  sad :(
Pain,pain,pain,
Despite all this,physical pain
Is way less than emotional pain.

With my life on hold,
What does my future hold?

Provide,
Never wish to divide
The family,
They always want to see us live happily,
These are great people,
Who deserve so much respect,
In the bible,
Its only the commandment concerning them which contains a promise,so inspect
Yourself,are you honoring them as they deserve to be honoured?
Having them is a blessing,
Love them.

Sharp pain,
For days,
Leading me to say no to nail biting!
Hurts without stopping,
Sleeping helps,
Pain killers,...not really.
Excruciating pain from a tiny thing,
Take caution,
Stop biting your nails.

Life without passion *****!
Its ideal to have something to give us the sparks,
Something to enliven us,
Even when it seems dangerous,
Passion is a driver,
Take your seat as a passenger,
No matter how many times we feel passionless,
There are those good days when we feel so full of passion and life feels painless,
Those are the times to seize the passion,
Because passion gives hope,
Something to live for.

Patience is hope in waiting.
As we wait,we develop.
Waiting without anxiety,
And knowing that God has it all under control.
Patience is never in vain.
There's time for everything.
Yours too.

It is the absence of war,
As it is the presence of love.

Theres power in pain,
Great power in a pen,
And greater power when the pen is used to pen pain.

Go
Ahead
And
Pen
Your
Pain.

Love them,

Accept them,

Don't judge them,

Laugh and joke with them,

Respect them and build their worth

Lessen the expectations,
They're only human.

PEOPLE PLEASER..
Is that a way of life to take up??
Living your life on a fellow humans terms??
Dearest people pleaser,you may think its love you're showing when in the actual sense its slavery..
Choose your path and live on your own terms.
The people you try to please wont even be there to regret with you the day you'll leave this earth.
We humans are never satisfied so trying to please humanity by all means will never satisfy,
People pleasing only ends up in losing self,self dignity and self respect,self love and self trust.

You're perfect the way you are,
Fit for the reason you were created,
The imperfections we talk about lie within,
Not outside,
We feel imperfect outside because our inner beings are imperfect,
And we know perfection of the inner being isn't attainable,
Our creator is the most perfect artist with no record of mistakes,
So He created us physically perfect with a certain purpose.
I say perfect because for us to be born,it means we were complete hence perfect,
Our inner beings are created by ourselves hence the imperfections because we are only human,
Humans with a touch of perfection,embrace your body its perfect the way it is,accept it.
No mistake was made when you were being moulded..

Physically you're a perfect ten,
Not because you're what the whole world may call ideal,
But because,
You're perfect,
Perfect because you're complete,
That's who you were meant to be,
Your features are perfect for you,
Whether you "lack" some or have them all,
You're perfect,
Remember;
You were invented,
Not by mistake but by purpose
Because need is the reason for invention.

Perfection is an illusion,
All that seems perfect isn't as it seems,
Flaws flow through all perfection,
In humanity perfection is an illusion.

In the newspapers,
The front pages contain ******,**** defilement,******,etc
Usually on a daily basis,
Its so saddening to think that such things happen daily,
Has humanity gone to the dogs?
Children are dumped,thrown and abandoned in public toilets or streets,
I wonder where the motherly instincts of humanity have run off to,
Children killing parents for money,rituals
Has humanity gone to the dogs?
Thought our parents are our biggest treasures.
Youths losing their minds and doing all sorts of things including wrecking their own lives in the name of "fun",
Demons being entertained and angels being called fake,
Is there hope or maybe we're just nearing the end
The solution? - love.

Process by which plants make their food and clear our air using light,
They have no feet or hands but they make their food right,
Being self sufficient,I bet they've got no need to fight.
Nature is inspiring,
Birds always happily singing,
Guess their songs are never expiring,
And they're surely thankful for the air they breathe through photosynthesis,
Do we appreciate our trees enough?or maybe the point of their existence we miss?

Don't chop them off unless you       need to.

Plastic smiles,
Plastic bodies,
Plastic lives,
Plastic words,
Fake
Fake
Fake
Fake,
Maybe its the latest trend,
Plastic smile to avoid  being questioned,
Plastic body in hope to be perfected,
Plastic lives to impress and draw attention,
Plastic words to try to fit into some section,
So here's the drill;
A fake smile hurts even more than a teardrop,
A fake body;doesn't change the inner you,and that's what's major
A fake lifestyle,only leaves you stressed out for no good reason,
Fake words,drain you and your conscience.
Be real,be you..there can never be another you,
You're beautiful/handsome;there can never be a more beautiful/handsome you.

I write poetry,
Not too sure I can recite it,
I simply write out my soul,
My feelings,my beliefs..
Perhaps even things I'm too shy to mention,
Its my way of expressing it all,
My way of telling someone what he or she needs to hear,
Maybe because I don't have that much courage to say it directly to individuals,
But at the end of it all,
I just wish to inspire before I expire from the existence of my earthly empire.

It takes a thinking mind
And a willing heart,
To write it.

Perception


       **Original


            Expressive


                Triumphant


                      Realistic


                            Yearnful...

Poetry spells out the words of



the heart through art,.

When hard work doesn't show great results,many things run through my mind,
Because daily I'm on my grind,
Trying hard to attain something I've always hoped to find,
Feel like closing my eyes,maybe become blind,
Blind to reality because it hurts,
And my heart breaks,
Is it a poets curse that inspiration is great when hurt,
Or is it a blessing in disguise because it is from a bruised heart;that great art is born....

Intelligence spiced with beauty,.
Integrity filled and peace loving
Self respecting,
Goodness is her duty,
Shes not to be taken for granted for she knows who she is,
Respect is not demanded,it comes naturally. She is a woman,a power woman

Heavenly Father,
Thank you for your grace,
Thank you for your forgiveness,
And for the peace you offer me;that which surpasses all human understanding,
Thank you for your protection from all dangers and for those I faced I say thank you because they've made me stronger,
Thank you for all my loved ones,
Lord thank you for everything,
Take over my life,for only you can,
May your name be glorified,
Forever and ever through Christ

Amen.

Do not give up,
You started for a reason,
Don't stop till you see that accomplished,
Shut your eyes from comparing your life to others,
Shut your ears from negativity,
Press on!
Press on!
Press on!
Even when they think you're mad and naïve press on
Great things don't come easy,
Give yourself some time,
You need to press on!
Press on and inspire someone someday.
Excellence comes with persistence.

Pride hurts loved ones of the proud,
Pride kills love and patience,
Pride destroys harmony,
Pride irritates!
Pride,
Pride,
Pride,
Pride,
Oh pride;I wonder when "I'm sorry" became a tongue cutting statement that its become so hard to use,
Pride!you defend yourself even when you know you're clearly wrong,
Pride;I hate you so much,
But perhaps there's an element of you in me because I'm only human,
Wish I could scrub each and every inch of me in order to have nothing to do with you!

If my principles
die,
It has to be
with
me,
Never before me.

Priorities
Birth
Principles.
Changing your principles,
Without counter-checking your priorities,
Can cause a huge mess,
Very confusing one,
The two - principles and priorities.
Go hand in hand..
Your priorities detect your principles,your principles protect your priorities.

They say need is the mother of invention,
This automatically means that you were "invented" for a reason,
To fulfill something,something that no one else will do,
You may be unique but not see anything in yourself which no one else has,
So how then are you really a holder of a unique purpose?
Well,life is a journey..
And what you're meant for will always be something that comes up as a passion,a strong desire.

Everything that has breath isn't something to last forever.
Time here on earth is limited.
Follow your passion;that very thing that makes your heart skip beats.
Love yourself inside out,embrace your flaws and let them rest in your strengths.
Living life to please others is a waste of breath.
We leave this earth individually and if we have to leave it with regrets then we'll bear the pain alone.
Live in such a way that when you're taking your last breath,your heart will be at peace at its last beat.

Her beauty glows from her character,
Her eyes are good attitude,
And her lips; good words.
Her nostrils are hope,
Her make up is confidence,
Her crown is her integrity.
She isnt flawless and she doesnt try to be
Real as she can be,
She lives in reality.
Emotional independence and stability both are her strengths,
A woman with values and well aware of her worth,
Doesnt abuse her sexuality to take men for granted.
That is the queen of integrity.

How can you doubt and trust at once?
Have faith but worry??
How can you keep your eyes dry,
When all they want to do is cry?
How can you stand when life is pushing you to your knees?

Realities differ.
Your reality is the reflection of your belief system.

You can never heal or fix someone emotionally,

In order to heal; one must decide they want healing.,

              Or


You may try and end up needing the healing yourself.

Any great aspiration,
Requires perspiration,

In order to be establised.

BEAUTY

You are beautiful,
But how long will that beauty last?
Don't treat the one that loves you like a fool,
Just because your options are vast,
A day will come when the beauty will fade,
Thats a thought most of us dread,
But it is reality,
Infact beauty is vanity,
Of course it is good to look at,
But what about what is in the heart?

MORTAL BODY

The body with time deteriorates,
Its like each day is a count down,
No,i'm not perssimistic.
Satisfy your soul,fulfill it.
As for your body, don't let it lead you astray.
Control it.
Love it,own it. You will never live anywhere else but in it. Embrace it..

You're perfect the way you are!
You're someones missing puzzle piece,
And a jigsaw puzzle piece as we know is specific,
It is the way it is because its meant to be that way to fit perfectly to complete the picture,
Don't let words bring you down,
I bet people would take back some of the words they've said about you but they just can't
Because words can't be reversed,
Listen,you're incredible.
One of a kind,
Don't try to change what you can't change because if you can't change it;its simply telling you its meant to be there.
Wouldn't you love to fit perfectly on the part you're supposed to be?
If yes,let yourself be..

The place to which you escape.
Sometimes our refuge is what we actually have to escape from.
So many things bring pleasure that is short lived,trying to escape reality is not ideal. We live in reality and escaping it is an impossibility.
How about we accept what we can't change and see light through some darkness?even when it hurts,take it as an exercise to strengthen your soul.its not easy but its always worthwhile.Hearts break but still pump blood,if you're not dead then there's hope.
