You are the Light

They think they know what is best for you.

They want you to dim your light

Don’t they know that even clouds try to put out the sun’s bright light, but it still shines bright?

You are light.

You are strength.

With the strength is how you shine so bright.

You don’t have to try.

You don’t have to understand why.

You are what you are.

They see it.

They feel it.

They can’t seem to accept it.

You are light.

You shine so bright, and help others see their own light.

Keep on shining.

You are the reason why.

You are the light.

Taunting Waters

You challenged me with your mist.

Along your path, you hissed.

A roar, a flow, a gravitating blow, there was no release to your taunting.

Right by you, I walked.

I could smell you, without an effort or a thought.

As you reached my toes, you bellowed out more of your rough talk.

The thought of following you out, amongst your depths, is still a thought, a very daunting thought that is quite haunting.

-M.

The Flow

As it flows,

Life begins to find a rhythm.

Just as time passes,

Life breezes by.

There are short spurts in which we exist,

Never really seeing it all put together until a while later.

Time is precious.

Life is, too.

As time flows,

Life begins to make sense.

Don’t Give Up

There are so many things in life that can try to steer us away from our goals or aspriations. When you have a passion, or have your mind set on a specific path in your life, push through. Find a way to get there and don’t let road blocks move you away from your final destination.

We can easily fall down.

We can easily give up.

What takes more tenacity us to push through.

It takes strength to get back up.

You have it in you to get back up.

You have it in you to succeed.

Believe in yourself and find those who also believe in you and want to help you, by encouraging you to go after what you are aspiring to go after.

Don’t ever give up on yourself.

You determine your future.

You determine the outcome.

Don’t give up.
