Its night time,I say my prayer..
And only hope to dream of my futuristic lover,
I close my eyes to sleep,
And he steps into my imagination
He comes to see me in his jeep,
I breathlessly go outside to peep
To be sure its him..
He's with his team,
Just so he can show me off to his mates,
I feel a bit shy,then he reassures me with a kiss in my almost confused state,
He tells me he loves me,
And that he's going to marry me...
And then.....................
****!someone jst woke me!!
Tastes good though lethal.
It doesn't satisfy,
It enslaves
Us,
And letting go isn't
Easy;it takes
Choice and
action,
Courage and deep determination,
In order to
Win the
War
Battle against self is
A tough one,
But victory
Calls.
Take time to think:
it is the source of power.

Take time to read;
it is the foundation of wisdom.

Take time to play;
it is the secret of staying young.

Take time to be quiet;
it is the opportunity to see God.

Take time to be aware;
it is the opportunity to help others.

Take time to love and be loved;
it is God's greatest gift.

Take time to laugh;
it is the music of the soul.

Take time to be friendly;
it is the road to happiness.

Take time to dream;
it is what the future is made of.

Take time to pray;
it is the greatest power on earth.
Inspirational piece worth sharing,no idea who created but its great!,nothing has been added or subtracted from it.
You  know  what

You  feel

Is

genuine

Love  if

Its  based

Beyond   *physical

appearance .
Yeah..
No matter how much you love someones physical feature(s),don't let that block your view of the persons inner being,don't let that, takeover the reasons for your feelings,
Physical things usually don't last long,
So learn the heart and love it more.
As much as the truth hurts,
Denial hurts more,
The truth relieves you of unnecessary anxiety,
While denial actually gives you unnecessary anxiety,
Accept truth,let denial go.
Only
          what you crave
     has the strength to
  tempt you.
It gives us the yearning for something we know isn't right,
The force is so strong that it gives us instant excuses as to why we should give in to it,
Falling into temptation isn't necessarily weakness,
Its tolerance.
She wasn't fighting for attention,
She needed help.
She felt invisible thats why she had to lessen the amount of cloths she wore,
So that someone could tell her she was beautiful,
Because back home,no one told her so.
She found it hard to believe her smile was enough to brighten her face so she masked herself with make up,
Trying to make up for what she thought she never had..
Theres always that girl like her,
What she needs to realise is that shes more than enough,
Beautiful as she is without approval.
That crazy moment when
Happens a lot..
Its standing right outside the fence,
Huge and old,
But it still stands strong,more like it needs no defense,
Its stood all seasons hot and cold,
It offers  great shade when its sunny,
And lots of flowers when the wind blows,
I sometimes look at it and laugh because its midlife was kind of funny,
Its a tree with no flaws,
Its very useful,
And inspirational,
And beautiful,
Its deserves to go international..
Poem I wrote about a tree I see everyday ,indeed inspiration is everywhere..
You are unique!
     Incomparable to anyone..
You are the perfect master piece for your purpose,
  The heavenly Masters beautiful design,
He never makes mistakes;so you are perfect!
The only imperfections you have lie within you and definitely not outside,.
Consider yourself as a priceless,incredible,beautiful and high achieving human being,
And always remember that a beautiful mind beautifies you..
#powerful poetry isn't always about rhymes. :-)
They say "beauty lies skin deep",
Well yes it does lie skin deep,
It just shouldn't lie dormant,
Let it shine.
Inward beauty,
Is for eternity,
It glows through the eyes,
Probably casts out doubts and lies,
Its free for all,
We don't have to spend anything at all
For us to attain it,
We have to recognise it
Within ourselves and nurture it.
Nurture it with goodness in thoughts,deeds and living,
With laughter,optimism and loving,

What's inside reflects on the outside,
As within so without.
Internal beauty is eternal.
The beauty of life,
Is that in it lies hope,
Within life all things hoped for are possible,
The beauty of life,
Is that Love is real,it exists.
The beauty of life,
Is that as long as you are alive,
You can make a different decision,
To change your lifes direction,
The beauty of life,
Is that as long as its you living,
You have every right to do what you want to do that makes you happy,
The beauty of life,
Is that life itself is beautiful,if you decide to see it as beautiful.
Only your eyes have the ability to see the beauty of your life,
Only your mind has the ability to live in the beauty of your life,
Only your hands have the ability to create the beauty of your life.
Its for everyone,
Anyone.
Everybody,
And anybody.
Written by different men at different times but flawless,
Before some things were scientifically proven,they were already written down,
Examples of these are;the earth being spherical,air having weight,stars being different,earth floating in space,etc
Evidently,its the most read book world wide
Its the book of wisdom,encouragement,salvation,protection,strength even love,
Read it more often,
When you read it,you're never alone,you may feel lonely but God is always there with you,talk to Him as He speaks to you through His word,
It contains the bread of life.
Those are the scriptures>1.Creation is made up of invisible elements = Hebrews 11 v3
2. The Earth is a sphere = Isaiah 40 v22
3.The Earth floats freely in space =Job 26 v7
4. There are innumerable stars = Jeremiah 32 v22
5. Each star is different and unique = 1 Corinthians 15 v41
6.Light moves = Job 38 v19- v20
7.The ocean floor contains deep valleys and mountains =2 Samuel 22 v16  & Jonah 2v6
8.The ocean contains springs = Job 38v16
9.Blood is the source of life and health = Leviticus 17 v11
10. Wind blows in cyclones = Ecclesiastes 1v6
11. Air has weight = Job 28 v25
All that was written way back,thousands of years ago..Indeed the bible is the real word of God.it lacks NOTHING!
Fly without fear of falling,
That courage I envy.*

Beautiful in their feathers,
And content without covering up.

Can not cook nor farm,
But trust their creator that they wouldn't starve.

They fly high,
Up to where they belong..
Doing what they were meant to do.

Beautify the earth as creatures of the sky.
Curiosity knew about knowledge.
But doubted knowledge because curiosity wanted to do it all alone without thinking twice or asking knowledge,
Curiosity got curious to try out knowledge,
So pride was dropped and by curiosity knowledge was approached.
Curiosity flirted with knowledge,
Together they conceived understanding,
By understanding;knowledge gave birth to wisdom,
And by wisdom curiosity and knowledge stayed together forever..
The birth of wisdom.
Knowledge is fully understood when curiosity is involved then wisdom follows after understanding
My little love story on how wisdom was born ^_^
The only game losers
Are good at,
Don't put yourself in that place,
Take responsibility and work things out,
Blaming others only wastes time and energy.

Why,
At the moment you die,
You'll have known better than the day on which you were born,
So many things will be known,
At the end of each experience,
You gain wisdom and some confidence,
Because you know anywhere you see that situation you'd make a difference,
So many examples,
Samples.
Indeed,the end is better than the beginning,
There's so much wisdom earning.
Built to protect,
Not to deter anyone..
But to defend self from brokenness..
But for how long can those walls last without breaking down..
Not searching for a hero.. Just a fighter.
We strive for it,
Hoping to live in it,
Despite all the failures encountered,
Winning must be the final result,
Discouraging as it is to fail despite working hard,
Its great to stay motivated and focused,
And give it your best shot.
Without failure,
Victory wouldn't taste sweet.
The splendour of glory,
Stretched beauty
Across the universe
That none could reverse.
Naturally occuring lights that leave any human mind in awe,
They're called auroras;that's not all..
Big is beautiful!when you take a look at these huge sights of divinity,
So gigantic they look like they've existed for infinity,
Located in Asia is the mount Everest,
King of the forest.
And in America;the Grand Canyon,
So grand I'd spell it in lights of neon.
The great barrier reef found in the Coral sea of Australias north eastern coast is so beautiful,
Naturally created by living organisms,its so beyond cool
More like the view of the Rio De Janeiro Harbour,
Another great sight to remember.
Talk of  the beautiful,ever flowing and rainbowed Victoria falls,
How to fully describe it,only God knows,
Its location has brought its proud owners Zambia and Zimbabwe to unification,
Indeed its a great destination.
Sometimes flamey and always beautiful is the Paricutin a cinder cone volcano,
Located in Mexico.
As beautiful as they all are,
You're a better star
In the eyes of our creator.
Haven't been to any of the seven natural wonders of the world yet but I just love the beauty in all of them,had no idea of writing about this until someone said I should and I did :)
The last part means - as beautiful as the seven wonders of the world are,we as human beings are way more beautiful.
Didn't want to make it tooooo long,so the descriptions aren't deep.
No matter the pain,
There is always gain.
It may not be obvious now
Because everything seems so dull,
But realise that life isn't a race,
We live here by grace*.
She's the greatest woman I know,
She's beautiful,
Her brains are incredible,
She works so hard,
Sometimes I feel she does way too much for me,
Oh she can pray!bet she's always on guard,
She's taught me how to not just look but see,
She's strong at heart,
Determined,full of faith and most loving,
Having her has nothing to do with luck,
I'm really blessed and highly favoured for having her,
She's my fathers life companion,
I call her mummy
I love her so dearly.
Parents are special.
When the heart gets "broken"
It still beats stoplessly,
The heart is strong,it endures until the brains says "I can't go on"
There's nothing your heart can't stand,
Nothing stops it from doing its work,
Let's learn from this ***** of life,
Its precious and really inspiring when you think of it.
Its never let you down,its always working even when you call it weak and broken.
It never stops..
Endure like it does,its within you.
The heart searches
for what the
eyes can't
see,and
knows
when
it
finds.
Your soul has no height nor weight,
It has no marks of scars of your past,
Nor tattoos of what your body has ever undergone,
So then your soul is plain,
Open,****..
Its what i love about you..
Why hold yourself captive of your past troubles,scars ad deeds,
When those things aren't marked on your true being;the real person you are,
We define everything first by how it looks.
With this,we lose opportunities with great people,
We overlook them and forget theres a deeper side of them to which we can connect.
With free will we make our own choices which we think are right,
Well not always..
Ancient day arranged marriages worked better than todays free will marriages,ironic. Right?
The people looked down upon actually excel,
And those that try to make others feel inferior are the ones actually inferior.
Life is like a journey of a million miles,
Starting very simply,but complicated.
Conception first then birth that breeds smiles,
Adolescence steps in with its own troubles to be daily contemplated,
Adulthood too with delicate dignity and pride,
Life can be rough but its a long beautiful ride,
Life then offers its glorious crown in grey,
Something to take pride in,
And never disguise..
A show case of wisdom from deep within,
And a sign to never despise..
Not all see this glory,
And so if it is upon you,consider yourself blessed,chosen.
For nature took its time and watched you proceed with deep lessons steadily.
He's friendly but not a flirt,
He's not pure but he tries to free his mind from dirt,
He sticks to one woman,
He knows having more only makes him less of a man.
He treats people with respect,
He's usually holding on to the good side an aspect,
He's positive,
His plans are so stable;more like sweetly manipulative,
Life isn't always nice for him,
But he still feels obliged to make a change in the lives of those in his realm.
He's a hardworker,
Such that he qualifies to be a home maker,
He's great but he's not proud,
He's so humble only his actions speak loud.
He's only a saint because he sins and still goes back for repentance,
He's not perfect,and he's brought this to acceptance.

He's the man,
Crown of grace on his head,
Life on his lips,
The world on his shoulders,
Love in his arms,
Hard work in his hands,
Strength in his legs,
Endurance on his feet.

Mind filled with burdens,
But a heart so kind.
Peace is his breath,
Love,his language.

Empty stomach,
Yet feeding others.
Bleeding,hurting internally.
Yet clothing others' wounds.
THE MAN.
Some people read and learn from the stories,
The poets live and write the stories.
Words can't be touched,
But they can break a heart.
A word can comfort or distort.
Sweet talk isn't the best language but if you have to choose it over breaking someone,choose it.
The words we speak can inspire,shape or put one in despair.
All ears deserve to hear a nice word about them.
Everyone has the power of words in them.
Let's think before we can speak.
Speak life!
A poets sword is his or her word*.
Proverbs 27:17 -
As iron sharpens iron,
so one person sharpens another.
The power of a woman is  not  to be underestimated at all,
Maybe that's why men are physically stronger than women,
Because a woman doesn't require that much of physical strength,
All it really takes is her mind and how she uses it,
She can create love or hatred,
Make you love sin or detest it.
She can build you or crash you to crumbs if you're not careful.
Women - use your power wisely,to make lives better;to empower.
Men - be wise enough to know how that power is working in your life,is it in a good way??
Yes you may be her head,but she's in your head (get it??).
Men have great power too but in this case I was focusing on my fellow ladies ;) . For any questions - inbox. Peace!
Well, the problem is that people who trust people expect those people to be infallible.
When we trust someone we expect utmost perfection.
Hopelessness can be felt,
But its not a fact.
Hopelessness is only real in death.
If you are alive,
There is always hope.
No matter what you go through,be encouraged. There is hope everyday,look forward to each new day and see what it brings.
There's no destination in life,
No one ever arrives.
Being human,ambitions change,
When we achieve,
We want more;something better..
The only day we arrive is when we die,
For then,we don't need to dream,or work or achieve,
So actually there's no arrival for the living,
Destiny is no arrival,
Destiny is the place you need to be in at some point,
And within destiny,there's no arrival still because new dreams are born.
Even after retiring,people still keep things going,arriving would be just letting things be and just living,doing nothing in hope of achieving..but we're human,we never arrive.
We pursue happiness,
We experiment with our lives,
Hoping to find happiness,
When pain in the heart thrives,
It feels like we've never known happiness,
As people,
Pursuing happiness,
May be a fun adventure but its not simple,
We **** ourselves slowly,
Thinking we're having fun normally,
The pursuit to happiness
Is genuine if we go after our hearts desires,
Before the beating of the heart retires,
We ought to follow that which we feel as a passion.
The soul knows of
Things untaught.
The body rarely appreciates,
So however we treat it,
Eventually it depreciates.
The soul,
If we give to it,
Will grow,
Its glow is eternal.
Beautify the soul,
They way you would the body and even more,
Afterall its the inside that reflects on the outside.
Look up at the night sky,
And see how beautiful the stars look,
Shiny and outstanding without even trying,

And the moon,
Illuminating the darkness..
The moon and the stars offer that beauty,
In togetherness,


Not trying to outshine each other,
Because they are beautiful together..
We are different individuals,and its our differences that make the completion of everything that is.

You see, someone somewhere does not have one of those things which seem to be just basic but really they are special and are to be appreciated.
Being ungrateful is easy,
But when you realize how fortunate you are, you begin to be more grateful.
Its words cut through flesh,
They go straight to the heart..
They sink in the mind,they linger in there and forever they stay.
They resound like an echo,
And like nightmares,they scream.
Therefore,use your tongue wisely.
If you feel you have no reason to forgive someone,
Consider this one - forgive because you deserve peace of mind.
Holding a grudge is like making your worst enemy the center of your life,
Don't give such authority to anyone,
A grudge only hurts you,so what's the point of holding it?
Its like holding a really sharp edged knife hoping it'll slice your enemys fingers when in the actual sense its slicing your own.
We all wish grudges could hurt the ones we hold them against but sadly they only hurt us.
Its very funny to think life would actually start with a ball of fire,how ridiculous!
There's a creator,
That's why the earths creations are orderly,
If evolution was the answer for the beginning of life,
I bet humans would have had wings by now or even scales to prove our constant change due to evolution,
But the view of a Great creator,
Its simple and very evident,people are still people,animals are still animals,
Everything was made as it is,
Have you ever wondered why plants haven't evolved,yet?
Or why dogs are still dogs and birds still birds?
Because they were meant to be what they are!not by evolution but by creation
Think about it,
Believe it or not.
And He loves you as He created you in His very own image.
Think about it.
Roses are so beautiful,
Very colorful,
And so attractive,
Who would guess that holding one would injure someone?
Roses hold a life lesson,
A lesson that anything however beautiful,
Has its deadly sides..
Admiring the beauty of a rose flower and drawing a lesson from it..
