"acheive" poems
Brewing a love potion is quite simple to do, a feather of a dove, and something from you.
A dash of sweet sugar, and bubblegum chewed. Yes, making a love potion is quite simple to do.
The voice of an angel must sing the spell and the holder of the heart shaped vial must never tell.
You cannot acheive greatness without these things, and without your potion you'll have knights - not kings.

"Have you talked to dad,
since you've been at school?"
"Nope."
"Are you coming home
for thanksgiving?"
"I don't know."
Josephina
breathes in a crackle
over the phone.
New York,
a cacophony
in the background.
A background of cold,
and
people talking
while walking
while hailing a yellowcab with a left
and slow-rolling heads locked
onto the phones in their right.
These people enter taxis,
not knowing if they're ever
going to reach home,
or the airport,
or union square,
just going
on the promise
that they won't become
road-kill.
I can't feel it in my yellow apartment.
If anything,
my yellowcab
idles.
Through the receiver
A squad car
rings nervously,
then
after a lungful
of garbage-smelling air,
it becomes a full blare.
A pause
of
noise
always ensues,
just for a second,
the entire corner
becomes a silent silo
of human beings.
"How's new york?"
"you know,
dad called me
and asked about
how to get on a diet,
can you believe that?"
Yes,
I can
dad is a fat ****
a pink, white belly
of a man. And a few
sandbags for chins.
"That's good."
"So I'm not going to see you?"
"Probably not."
"Well, you should call dad,
talk to him,
he loves
you."
Some conversations,
acheive nothing.
The same
tired, dead things
get run over.
Road-kill.
Josephina believes she is the spatula
that will bring back
pancake squirrels
and
pancake relationships.
As much as you don't know
about me and dad's relationship,
I can give you a kodak moment.
A snapshot,
of a hovering man,
pointing at his son's neck,
searching for the misplaced vertebrae,
the lack
of fear for the world
--"the right kind of fear,
the fear a man
should have
of himself"--
and a son,
hunched,
small hands in fists,
a heavy haul of muscles
pulled into a dark brow
right over black eyes.
This picture
will suffice.

If
Everything
Is to happen
The way it is to be
In the name of "Destiny"
Why should my soul in unrest
Race to a Self destructing "Mutiny"
Only to acheive a mere "Ignominy"?

The world has mysterious ways of showing you youre wrong.
One day is torturous and feels extremely long.
The next, you wake up and smile, its a new day.
Blessings may come your way.
Yet, life will always have those days that you wish you could rewind.
Even though the ugly is all in your mind.
You see, the bad turns into beautiful,
This part is the most crucial:
Lessons come in waves,
And some days your mind caves.
Not knowing what to do,
But know that its all up to you.
The lessons are disguised as many things;
Heartbreak, anger, pains.
Heartbreak is the most important,
Its poison can also be the most potent.
Although it hurts,
Its the only one that works.
Being heartbroken helped me find my soul,
I was now the only one in control.
Because of heartbreak I love me,
And like that it shall always be.
Anger taught me kindness,
It showed me I was speaking through blindness.
The hatred in my heart had been brewed,
Something that was long over due.
Ive had my share of pain,
And for all of it I was ashamed.
Now I see I am not my past,
For the good days in my mind are the ones that will last.
Instead of taking my pain out on them,
Find the love in my heart for an amen.
A thank you for an opportunity to make someones day,
So keep them coming my way.
Pain, pain comes from both of these emotions.
Pain comes in oceans.
One day may be physical, the next mental.
Either way, the pain can be detrimental.
But just like the old saying,
“What doesnt **** you makes you stronger.”
So just keep holding on a bit longer.
I know it seems like you cant keep going,
But this is something you must keep knowing.
You are stronger than you think,
Kinder than you believe
And you can make it through this pain.
You are not your heartbreak,
Your love is an earthquake.
Not all are prepared to love someone like you,
They are cracks, and you are the glue.
Remember that anger is from within,
Letting go is the only way to win.
Forgive yourself along with others,
We are all sisters and brothers.
There is nothing wrong with pain,
Know that there is always something to gain.
You are stronger than you believe,
So go out there and acheive.

What am i living for
Am i living for the hope that diminishes with time
Am i living for my family whom i was a great disappointment
Am i living for the happiness or love that never seems to arrive
Am i living for the 58dollars i got paid as my monthly salary
Am i living for the plans i made i never got the mobilities to acheive them
Maybe life treats some people preferencially
Maybe life has her own people she favours with time
Maybe life is a politician who make empty promises
Maybe life is discriminating
Maybe life believed in the concept of favouriitism and
The principle of godfatherism
Why do some people enjoy this life as if they created it
The live a luxurous life
Intimidating the poor and surpressing them
They drive the most espensive cars and splashes water at the poor
Some poor are there begging for a square meal
They never know what is happiness
All they do is find somewhere they could eat for the day a d move on
Life is really a politician
Life has people she made rich and people she made poor with time
Life has people she cares for and people she didnt care if they live or die
The poor suffers the most expensive sickness in the world today
With no money to cure them and they finally die with time
Malnutrition has caused the death of many childern and adult whom the principle of favouritism and godfatherism wasnt on there side
They work all day to provide food and shelter for there family
There 12hrs work per day to a month was spent on food and rent having nothing to save
There kids kids could not go to school due to the huge amount of school fees
Oh life
Oh life
Is time you start considering the tears of the poor
Oh life
Is time you remember the poor and favour them too
Is time you circulate the principle of favouritism and godfatherism and not monopolising it
Is time you give the poor reason to believe it worth to stay alive
Is time you restore the hope they already lost in you
Other than this the cry of the poor remains
What am i living for
What am i living for
What the hell am i living for

What were my goals born of?
Desire for more,
The feeling I would die if I didn't follow them
The knowledge that I can acheive them
The idea that this is what I was born to do?
Or am I just to scared to persue
What I wabt to do?
Will I ever be brave enough to figure it out?

Goals are made to acheive and break records,
Who dreams to achieve can concur it,
Goals are of different kinds,
Goals are of different fields,
Different people creates various goals in different fields,
Business goals are hectic to achieve
But not impossible to concur it.
Bigger goals needs big efforts to achieve
Small goals are easy to fulfill,
Goals are gold spot that remains in our minds.

She wore a pretty smile and had the perfect eyes,
Her beauty striked every heart
Her beauty hided every scars.
No wonder her pain was just a mystery
She kept it secret like it was her history.
She transformed herself from caterpillar to butterfly
Her struggle was real, but she burried it deep inside.
There was a story behind her,
The story which was unspoken but real.
For no one should see the truth behind her life,
As she was an inspiration for all the youth alive.
Her goals were limitless,
She urged to acheive it, unless .
ALL her efforts and hardworks,
Made her shine like fireworks.

Everything ends eventually
Nothing is good but Jehovah God
You're not good, I'm not good
No one will acheive perfection
On their own
Eat the most organic
Collect rain water
Workout everyday
You may prolong your life some
Still life ends eventually
"I am no part of the world" said Jesus
"My kingdom is no part of this world"
I believe Jesus
I believe his words
So I know nothing from this world
Belongs to my king.
He does not promote the violence
He does not sexualize messages
He does not punish us for our sins
No, he died for our sins
Yes, everything ends
Eventually
And I am grateful it does.... for now
I would be happy to not have the stress
To not experience anxiety
The only thing that keeps me focused
Is knowing
When Jesus takes over
All the violence will end
All the sickness and death
Man and his dominance
The ruining of the earth
And it will be filled instead
With pure love and good
With the knowledge of Jehovah
Forever

We worship beans like it's Bobody's business, and
Beans are my hero
Beans are fibrous
With protein and tasting
Them makes me ready
Beans over-acheive
They did not have to be so
Healthy and ****
I would pour beans where
Fate led me to decant them
Anywhere, Bridget
I'd love a salad
Made of just beans and more beans
I'd eat it with beans.

comparing,
replacing,
mistreating,
misleasing.
are just a few
things youve
turned our relationship
into in such a short time period.
loving,
caring,
baring,
always daring,
are just a few
things we could
acheive in our relationship
in such a short time period.

I didn't believe it this time.
I was so scared of the past
that
when it was in the palm of my hands
I was too scared thinking
again it wouldn't last.
So I pushed away the fear
and in the process you flew
having a more clear vision
I now see things anew.
I didn't quite understand
I didn't believe,
but now my mind has changed
we will beat the odds, we will acheive
Take your time please,
but when you're ready take my hand
I will show you love and acceptance
I will keep you safe when you land

I don't think I could acheive all my dreams if it weren't for you, The one I never expected. I would have feebly fought for them, pined for them, but I don't think I could have gotten myself to a place where I could get them on my fingertips.
I'm going to be an author. I finished a novel, I pushed past my wandering imagination and uncertainty because you made it easier to feel my bones. To do the things that are like breathing for me.
I have a lot of worry in my heart, I always have. I worry about not being good enough or going crazy or about your safety or about the future. I don't know if I've gone madder, but on the precipice of loneliness I am not terrified. I am only wishing us both the best.
I won't see you for four months. Alone that fact makes me miss you already. But I'm not scared about it. You want to build a life with me, and you of all people don't take statements like that lightly. You may be far away but you aren't leaving.
This is a time for both of us to get ready to be the people we want to be. You get to start getting your dreams together. I'm sure as hell going to do the same thing. I cannot wait to show you with my eager little smile how far I'll come in those months. I hope I floor you. I hope you'll love me more than ever. I'm sure I'll feel that way about you.
I don't think I'll ever be that girl who feels releived or settled about being married to the well-off, wicked smart guy. If anything your intelligence makes me feel I need to keep on pushing. I want to be just as rafiant and brilliant by your side, not seem like the lucky trophy wife with the ****
This summer will grow us. I hate to have us grow so much apart, but its how it is and we, ever adaptable and strong, will manage. I'm sure skype will be our ally.
But only with you, and I hope you feel similar with me, that we can be this grand together and have the sort of life that we could only dream of. We can have a life that neither of us never realized could be so insane and wonderful all at once without the other. I don't think I've ever been a better version of myself than I have with you. I'm stronger and I'm responsible and I'm willing to do stupid, crazy things to work towards all my hopes and dreams come true. I'm still so crazy but it doesn't matter to you. God, I ******* love you.
I cannot wait for the grand together life we will have. Only a few whiles until we get there. One summer, then some time together. Then my final semester as you get things ready in our new world and then...
Well then hopefully that grand together never needs to be forced apart again.

Pain within my every word
Mental instability
Never very kind or patient
Definitely not conducive to tranquility
Oh to be free all I long for
World exterminated of hate
Something I've dreamt about often
Life has refused to cooperate
Relaxation an overstayed houseguest
Won't take my subtle hints to leave
Some think I enjoy lazy demeanor
Desperately wish goals I could acheive
I'm not worthless degenerate
Just process events differently than most
A am a lost soul fighting depression
Inside haunted by a nameless ghost
With zero way to discover a road to bliss
Words I scribble my comfort when dark
Everything is a fleeting experience
Perception altered by every harmful remark
Is swallowing truth so hard
That it sticks in back of my throat?
If it is I'll forcefully choke it down
Weight why it's difficult to float

I hope this new year will be truly amazing (for a change)
I hope I'll acheive the things I desire (for instance you)
I hope I'll make my parents proud
I hope I'll make myself proud
And I hope I'll be kind and loving towards everyone
Yet the voices in my head are screaming
How do you accomplish anything applicable in this state of mind?

Freedom, something we all desire.
Such a perfect idea, spread your wings and fly.
Run through an endless forest just because you can.
Swim in any ocean and enjoy life, no-one can stop you.
Light a fire at midnight and feel its warmth, observe it's friendly glow.
Go for a walk and watch the sun rise, breathe in the morning air.
Lie on a beach at night and look into the sky , be enlightened by billions of stars .
Freedom, something we all desire, something beautiful that we can all acheive.
True liberty can be yours, you just have to believe.

To be a poet is the end goal you achieved it
What did I acheive?
You reincarnated me,
not as a animal or a human.
Not even a life form for that matter,
But you put me in a sonnet in a cluster of words.
I’m not religious as such but
my god poets can resurrect.
Feeling in a simple rhythm
The physicality of it is uncanny
Words that I wish would slip past my tongue.
My god poets can resurrect.
What pleasure is must be to bloom so sweetly.
Does the words come quickly?
Once I find my hand,fingers and knuckles.
Pen to paper, finger to lips would it come naturally?
We will see if I can bring air back into lungs deflated by time.
May I stumble to present my work.
Or hold my tongue as they look at the beginning.
My god poets can resurrect.
Must I find sense of place?
Drip a cigarette between my fingers
Papered apartment full of hero’s of song,who now quite as you write the new.
Ability coming naturally you insisted.
Do I not need a Parisan perspective.
Or do I need ordinary to flourish private extraordinary.
My god poets,poets...can

Who, me. I don't know,
I'll ask We, the people.
How has the world,
the one we share, you with me, I with thee,
how has our reality
come to today
surrounded by hooting proud warriors lauding their leaders
made kings by the magi and the tax collectors and spenders?
That's the question.
I think it's a test, or a temptation, knowing the answer might **** us.
Do the math, or believe an expert who says
he knows he knows, an
experienced thinker and weigher of big ideas.
Choose an expert, Yahoo, Goggle experts in interesting time one.
You choose.
Only for now. These teasing toy journeys are only real
in your way of thinking.
An expert in words at play or
an expert in words of war
or work or woe or
joy and
strength'n'vigorishit--
use-ery compounded into stone
an expert in dark, full-on absense of light, al
right, al
ready -- the expert
you let be smarter than you, by God, or any other witness,
that expert better be having more than historical authority, okeh.
Gears used to grind, stick-shift,
yoost to lever m'thematically synchronized
wheels in wheels,
lesser gears, experienced old grease monkey knows,
between those,
is where m'monkey wrench goes.
Bring wheels in wheels to a screeching halt!
Like by the River of Tebar, very hard to write such thoughtscenes,
he trys, um-phailure, deep breath,
look around, selah.
Kiss the son, taste the son, know the son as brother, as gotchabacker
friend, who is the way, the truth, and the life.
No lie is of the truth. There is a basic algorythm in 2019.
AND in 2019 I have an idea that works for me,
the null set can hold any evil any mind, mortal or otherwise,
can conceive.
Napoleon Hill seeds sometimes sown as weeds to choke a crop of lies,
"What the mind of man can conceive, it can acheive."
Ah, so:
Man as a whole, he is thought to have meant, mankind, wombed and un;
but he may have meant man as in, any one man, wombed or un.

I hate how quick silly human beings are to judge
Just becuase i'm a teen and I wear baggy clothes
Doesn't mean i'm mean and don't understand your pains
Just becuase I have headphones on
Doesn't mean i'm a teenage punk who doesn't doesn't know any better
Just because I smoke
Doesn't mean you can point me out to your children as a bad example
If you could only see your own faults first
Oh how you'd wish to be in someone elses place
But that wouldn't fix anything
No matter who you are
You will always have faults
You can only acheive what you percieve as perfection
Once you fix the flaws you can fix and accept the flaws that you can't
But all these silly humans do is point fingers at others to cover up their own faults
Such silly creatures

You ever reach the moment
when enough is enough?
You want nothing more to do with a person
or a situation
or an issue?
You just think it's time for it to disappear?
Well,
I'm having that moment.
It's time for this ******** to stop.
It's time for this to end.
I've had enough.
I fight too hard for things that I'll never acheive.
I believe in people too much.
I have too much faith in the "good" in people
that I blind myself to the "bad".
It's over.
There is no turning back.
Sadly, I have reached my limit.
I feel like I've wasted my time.
Nothing has been accomplished,
but I did everything in my power.
I beat myself up over and over and over again
and for what?
Just to fail...
But can I really look at it as failure when I had no control over the situation?
It was not my choice.
I can't control people.
I can't predict people.
I can only count on those close to me.
I can only count on that which makes me secure
and I hate that my insecurities overcame me.
I hate that my attempts were all in vain.
I wanted to salvage something.
I wanted to believe that my feelings had some purpose,
but I suppose it's just become a lesson.
I should never think that it will always work out as I want.
Some things are just not meant to be.
Or else...they need more time,
but my impatience controls me.
I cannot just let time pass without action.
I need to feel as if I'm doing something,
as if I'm trying something...
I need to feel as if I'm fixing it
only to realize that I have fixed nothing.
Instead, I pushed it too far.
But I'm not really trying to blame me.
Because it's not my fault.
Why place the blame on me when I was the only one fighting?
When I was the one who really wanted to make things right?
How dare people claim that I don't care!
You've never met anyone who cared more.
You've never met anyone who tries harder.
You've never met anyone who believes in people more.
You've never met anyone who exhausts every effort.
You've never met anyone who would do anything for anyone.
You've never met anyone who is quite like I am.
And if you don't believe these things about me,
then honestly, you've never really met me at all.
Because those who know me, know this about me:
I will always be there.
I will never give up.
I will never go away.
I will never drop you.
I will never harm you.
But that is only if I am given the same treatment.
I do not make friends for fun.
I make friends for real.
And to lose one, kills me.
But I can't always be the one that fixes it,
especially if the other side wants nothing to do with it anymore.
I'm stuck at the mercy of someone else.
My control is gone.
And now I can only accept the inevitable.
One day...there will be regret.
But it won't be mine.

On the creation of a dream
One thing must always be remembered:
For the time being, it is but a figment of your imagination.
Do not do as many have done and let the dream consume you so
That you are lost to the world around you and so helpless
In the realisation of said dream.
And if you find a way to acheive this,
Be sure to let me know,
I could do with a little help right now.

I've been thinking about my goals and how I will acheive them and I keep running into this good for nothing bleep called PATIENCE. So heres a lil something
I want everything-everything
I want the world because I can
I want power because I can
And I want everything because I can.
I am tired of hoping and wishing and promising
because I CAN- be tired of it
I want now, and I want
everything
I want time, I want love, I want happiness
I want knowledge
and yes I want everything
and yes I will get everything I want as long as I realize I should want
PATIENCE.

Happiness to me is not simply what you can see.Happiness is laughter and sharing joys in life with the people who you love the most.Happiness, contrary to thought really can't be bought.I really think Im at my best when my bills are paid and food is on the table.To feel the love of a hug and singin whos snug as a bug to my baby.Just to know Im able to acheive my dreams and goals.Happiness can not be defined within a few short lines,I beleive it will take a lifetime and Im living mine.

My mind grows tired
My body weak
Just wanna close my eyes
And never open them again
eternal sleep
But I wont rest
That's a feat I can't acheive
Cause my soul is torn
Lost in translation
Started since my day one born
I've searched for answers
But uncovered more questions
Thought I could teach
But Im still learning lessons
This is my confession
I'm not Usher
But I must say
I've gotten older wiser
I can admit I'm afraid
I'm scared
Frightened that my soul will grow old
Alone
Because I've seen heard and felt love
But in my grasp it won't stay
Maybe I'm cursed
with the burden of lonliness
Trapped in my own hell of sorrow
Single tear drop falls as my soul
Fades away...
