To DARE!

To DARE!
“If nothingness could be measured,
  The level of one’s reflection would serve
  As a standard measure,
  Between the wish and those things in life,
  That lays in waiting for one that dares,
  Dreams are as hungry as ones Demons
  Be sure to feed the right ones!
  The future belongs to those who DARE”

GENUINE

“Total self-esteem requires total,
And unconditional,
Acceptance of your-self,
You are a unique and worthy individual,
Regardless of your mistakes,
defeats or failures,
Despite what others may think, say or feel,
About you or your behavior,
If you truly accept and love yourself,
You won't have a driving need for approval
Self-esteem is a genuine love of one’s self.
Stop all adverse value judging of yourself.
Stop accepting the adverse value judgments
Of others,
Purge yourself of all condemnation,
Shame, blame, guilt & remorse,
For you are GENUINE!”

JUST be YOURSELF!

"Be yourself, I mean, who do you think you are kidding?
If you be yourself, you'll find you're a perfect friend.
You can be a perfect man,
You can be a perfect woman, you’ll be happier,
Instead of trying to be someone you know you aren't.
You'd be a shadow of a figure you don't even recognize,
If you be yourself, you will procure confidence,
And life would be much simplified to be who you are,
For the sake of others who want to be friends with you,
But don't know who you are,
If you be yourself, maybe you will just,
Get rid of those that force you to be,
Someone or Something you are not,
Think about it?”
And just be yourself !”

"Strangest Circumstances"

"Sometimes you meet someone,
And it’s seems risible,
Whereas the two of you,
On some level belong together.

As good friends in no way louche,
Or as that of a family acquaintance,
You just click as if you have,
Known each other always,

You may meet people like this,
Through your entire life,
Out of nowhere under,
The strangest incredulity,

But they help you feel conscious,
I don't know if that makes me,
Believe in concomitance,
Or inevitability or sheer fate,

But it definitely makes me believe,
In something that is valuation,
Of discovering,
Under Strangest Circumstances"

VOICE in the WIND

"I do not know how to reach you,
As I hear your voice in the wind,
I feel her under my skin within my heart,
As my soul awaits for her,

All these nights without you,
Let my dreams surround you,
I see and touch her face,
As I have fallen into her grace,

When the time is right,
I know you will be in my arms,
Although we are far away I am effete,
So hard I want you to stay,

But not this way,
Embrace me with your mind,
As I feel you in my heart and soul,
May this feeling not fade away,

In this the,
VOICE IN THE WIND"

"WHISPER GOODBYE"

Have you whispered?
My name before you sleep,
Have I entered into your
Thoughts, as you drift?

Do I pass through your judgment?
And soul as you weep,
Do you feel as if you,
Have lost control?

As our inner feeling and,
hearts we keep,
At times I feel you are near me,
As I whisper your name,

I now realize we were absurd,
To have ever parted,
I see your face ever so,
Vividly in my mind,

I tend to feel the upmost enchantment,
I close my eyes and see as we once danced,
I wonder will we ever be together again,
Holding each other ever,
So tightly as we once did,
Assert our love,
And never to WHISPER GOODBYE”

Echo Location

There's a ghost in the machine
A distant heartbeat
An echo
A recollection of tides pulled by the rhythm
Of the moon
A lunar cycle
Of leaves swirled
And now settled
By the whisper
Of the breeze
A message repeated
But not audibly heard
Remembered and understood.
You are in the right place
Where you need to be
All you need now
Is to breathe and be.
