The Idea to Change

The idea to change
Is a daunting one,
It takes courage and strength
To step outside of your comfort zone.

But change is necessary
For growth and evolution,
It’s the only way to move forward
And reach your full potential.

So don’t be afraid to change,
Embrace it with open arms,
It’s the best thing you can do for yourself.

The idea to change
Can be scary,
But it’s also exciting,
It’s a chance to start over
And create a new life for yourself.

So don’t let fear hold you back,
Take the leap and change,
You won’t regret it.

Change is not always easy,
But it’s always worth it,
So don’t be afraid to embrace it,
And see where it takes you.

Today is broken, so I will cry

Today is broken, so I will cry,
A solitary tear, a river wide,
A sorrow’s depth, a sky’s height,
A fragile soul, a world’s weight.

The morning dawned, a false promise made,
A lie that mocked, a truth betrayed,
The sun rose high, a fiery blade,
That cut through dreams, a night’s disguise.

Yesterday’s memories, a faded hue,
A past that taunts, a present Blue,
Regrets and what-ifs, they crowd the mind,
A chorus chanting, a melody unkind.

Tomorrow looms, an uncertain guest,
A shadow dancing, a future unblessed,
The wind howls warnings, a storm’s portent,
A darkness gathering, a tempest’s consent.

Today is broken, so I will cry,
A lonely figure, against the sky,
A single drop, a deluge vast,
A sorrow’s ocean, forever fast.

The stars above, a distant throng,
A celestial choir, a heavenly song,
They sing of hope, a gentle breeze,
That whispers secrets, a symphony of ease.

But here on earth, a different tune,
A discordant beat, a funeral march boon,
The trees stand still, their leaves rustle sighs,
As nature mourns, a requiem replies.

Today is broken, so I will cry,
A fragile vessel, a sea of sighs,
A shattered dream, a world awry,
A solo voice, a universe denied.

Yet in the midst, a glimmer shines,
A ray of light, a beacon divine,
A chance to mend, a second chance,
A new beginning, a life to enhance.

Today is broken, but tomorrow waits,
A clean slate, a canvas unfurls,
A brush of hope, a palette bright,
A masterpiece, a new day’s delight.

So let the tears fall, let the heart weep,
For in the sorrow, a lesson keep,
That life’s a journey, twists and turns,
But strength and courage, our spirits learn.

Today is broken, so I will cry,
But with each tear, a wisdom nigh,
That though the world may shatter and fade,
Our inner strength, a rainbow’s shade.

The Power of Words

Eloquence is a powerful thing,
It can move mountains and change minds.
It can inspire hope and courage,
And it can bring people together.

When used for good, eloquence can make the world a better place.
It can bring about change and justice,
And it can help us to understand each other better.

So let us all use our eloquence for good,
Let us use our words to build up, not tear down.
Let us use our words to inspire, not to divide.

And let us use our words to make the world a better place.

Aberrant

I am an aberrance, A creature of darkness and light. I am not like the others, I am not bound by their rules.

I am free to think for myself, To explore my own thoughts and feelings. I am not afraid to be different, I am not afraid to stand out.

I am an aberrance, And I am proud of it.

Little by little

Little by little, day by day,
We make our way along the way,
With every step we take and move,
Our path is shaped, our fate is proved.

Slowly but surely, we progress,
Through life’s challenges and its tests,
With patience, courage, and resolve,
We overcome what may evolve.

Small steps lead to great success,
As we strive for happiness,
Each effort counts, each action matters,
As we climb life’s endless ladders.

Little by little, we can achieve,
All that we hope for and believe,
With perseverance and dedication,
We can reach any destination.

The Flight of Freedom

Captured and chained,
Women’s lives were constrained.
Forced to convert,
Their spirit crushed and hurt.

But resolute and brave,
A woman rose to save.
She fought for their rights,
Spreading courage and might.

She flew on wings of hope,
Helping them to break free of the rope.
The oppressors tried to pull her down,
But she rose above with a determined frown.

In the end, she emerged victorious,
Her efforts rendered glorious.
Women’s freedom was restored,
Their spirit renewed and untoward.

To defend our nation with pride and fear
Each drop of blood, a solemn oath

With grit and fortitude, we march ahead
For the nation we love, for the blood we shed

The Courage to Face Fear

Doubly as dangerous, but brave, To face our fears, to ride the wave, To take a chance, to seize the day, To find our strength, to pave the way.

For fear can hold us back, it’s true, But courage, it can see us through, To new horizons, to brighter days, To find our path, to change our ways.

The road may be long, the journey tough, But with courage, we have enough, To face the danger, to be unafraid, To find our courage, to make the grade.

The Battle Cry

Scraping along defences,
The enemy’s army advances,
With swords clashing and shields banging,
Our warriors stand their ground, unflinching.

The battle rages on and on,
As the sun sets and the moon rises,
Blood spills on the battlefield,
And the air is filled with war cries.

Our soldiers fight with all their might,
Defending their land and their kin,
Their courage and bravery shining bright,
As they face the foe, chin to chin.

But as the night wears on,
And exhaustion starts to take its toll,
We pray for victory to come,
And for our enemies to fold.

Finally, the dawn breaks,
And the enemy retreats in defeat,
Our warriors emerge victorious,
Their triumph a sight to behold.

The Shining Star

She shines too brightly to be ignored,
A star so radiant, we are allured.
Her light illuminates the darkest night,
A beacon of hope, a guiding light.

Her brilliance is a sight to behold,
A story of courage that needs to be told.
She overcame obstacles with grace,
And now she shines in her rightful place.

Her glow fills us with warmth and peace,
As her radiance continues to increase.
The world is brighter because of her,
A shining star that will always endure.

A New Beginning

All things must start anew,
Like the morning sun and dew.
The old must give way to the new,
As life begins its journey anew.

The past is gone, the future bright,
A clean slate, a brand new sight.
The present moment, a gift so right,
A chance to start again with might.

Embrace the change, let go of fear,
The road ahead may not be clear.
But trust in yourself, your path is near,
And success will soon appear.

Turning the Page

We have learnt enough to turn the page,
The future awaits like an open stage.
New adventures and stories to be told,
As we leave behind what’s old and cold.

I find myself excited and scared,
Wondering what’s ahead and what’s spared.
But with every step, I gain new ground,
And the fear begins to lose its sound.

The past is gone, the present is here,
The future is bright, there’s nothing to fear.
We’ve grown stronger and wiser too,
Ready to face whatever comes anew.

Life’s Bitter Winds

The frigid gust that tenses skin and straightens hair,
Is like life’s bitter winds that we must bear,
We brace ourselves and stand our ground,
Even when the challenges that we have found.

We face the storms that come our way,
And with each trial, we learn to pray,
For strength, for courage, for hope and grace,
To help us navigate life’s rocky place.

But even when the winds are still,
We must remember to climb the hill,
And enjoy the view from the top,
For life is precious, and it doesn’t stop.

Uncertainty

Tomorrow I don’t know, what it might bring,
It could be sunshine or storm, or anything.
The future is a mystery, waiting to unfold,
A story yet to be written, a tale yet to be told.

But I’ll face it with courage, and a heart full of hope,
With strength in my step, and the will to cope.
I’ll take it one day at a time, and see where it leads,
Embracing the journey, and tending to my needs.

For tomorrow may be uncertain, but today is in my hand,
A chance to live fully, and to take a stand.

Fear’s Grip

Knees wobble and hands prostrate,
I stand before my deepest fears.
My heart races, my breath abates,
As I confront my inner tears.

The unknown looms before me,
A path I’ve yet to take.
Courage failing, I can’t flee,
Heartbreak, failure, and heartache.

But in this moment, I choose to stand,
No longer will fear rule my plight.
With every breath, I take command,
And step forward into the light.

The psyche fears

The psyche fears

The psyche fears what it cannot see,
What lurks in the depths of the mystery,
The unknown, the dark, and the unfamiliar,
They bring a sense of dread that is peculiar.

The fear of failure that holds us back,
The fear of the unknown, that puts us off track,
The fear of the future, that fills us with dread,
The fear of the past, that won’t let us shed.

The fear of rejection, that cuts like a knife,
The fear of loss, that takes away our life,
The fear of change, that uproots our stability,
The fear of pain, that shakes our tranquility.

The psyche fears what it cannot control,
What it cannot comprehend, what takes a toll,
The demons that lurk in the shadows,
That haunt our thoughts and cause sorrows.

But fear can also be a motivator,
A force that helps us grow and become greater,
For when we face our fears head-on,
We find the strength to carry on.

The psyche fears, but it can also heal,
It can overcome and break the seal,
It can find the courage to take the leap,
And conquer the fears that cause us to weep.

The Mountains and the Sea #Poetry

The Mountains and the Sea

The mountains and the sea,
A sight of beauty and grandeur
The peaks of the highest heights,
The depths of the deepest blue.

The mountains and the sea,
A sight of power and might
The cliffs of the tallest peaks,
The waves of the mightiest tides.

The mountains and the sea,
A sight of wonder and awe
The crests of the highest summits,
The foam of the wildest waves.

The mountains and the sea,
A sight of strength and courage
The peaks of the highest heights,
The depths of the darkest blue.

The Price of Liberty

The Price of Liberty

The price of liberty is never cheap,
It’s paid with blood, with sweat, with tears.
A struggle that runs so deep,
A journey that lasts for years.

For every freedom that we enjoy,
There’s a sacrifice that’s been made.
A life that’s been lost, a heart destroyed,
A sacrifice that can never fade.

The price of liberty is a heavy burden,
A weight that’s carried by the brave.
A journey that’s often uncertain,
But a journey that they choose to pave.

So let us never forget the price,
That’s been paid for the freedom we hold.
For in its beauty, there’s sacrifice,
A story that’s been long told.

Let us honor the ones who came before,
And the ones who continue to fight.
For the price of liberty is worth so much more,
Than the darkness that it can ignite.

Set Fear Free

Set Fear Free

Let go of worry, let go of doubt,
Embrace the courage, let fear out.
Release the shackles that hold you down,
And rise above, wear your fearless crown.

Break the chains, break the mold,
Leave behind the stories you’ve been told.
Explore the unknown, venture into the deep,
And find the strength, you always keep.

Dare to dream, dare to fly,
Spread your wings, reach for the sky.
Take that leap, with all your might,
And conquer the darkness, with your light.

Write Your Own Story

Life is an unwritten book,
With blank pages waiting for a look.
The pen is in your hand, it’s your turn,
To fill the pages, to make it burn.

Write your own story, let it unfold,
With tales of bravery, and adventures untold.
Don’t let others hold the pen,
For this is your story, and only you can.

Embrace the unknown, take a leap,
And watch as your story begins to seep.
Into the hearts of those you meet,
A tale of courage, of hope, and of defeat.

The Late Night Talks

The Late Night Talks

In the hush of the night,
We sit and talk, with all our might.
A time for reflection, a time for thought,
A moment to share, what our hearts have wrought.

The late night talks, a special time,
A chance to connect, and make things fine.
To share our dreams, our hopes, our fears,
And wipe away, all the lonely tears.

With every word, a bond is formed,
A friendship that’s true, and never scorned.
For in the depths of the night,
We find the courage, to make things right.

So let the late night talks, continue on,
A special moment, with each new dawn.
For in the quiet of the night,
We find the strength, to make things right.

The Power of One

In this poem, we explore the theme of The Power of One, celebrating the strength and resilience of individuals who stand tall and walk their own path.

The lone bird in the sky, with its wings wide open,
Is a symbol of strength, resilience, and independence unbroken.
It soars above the clouds, with determination and courage,
An embodiment of individuality, free from the shackles of bondage.

The power of one is not just in standing alone,
It’s in unity and support, where the strength is sown.
For every person’s story is a unique one to be told,
And with determination and resilience, the power of one shall unfold.

The solo journey may seem daunting and long,
But with faith and perseverance, one can remain strong.
For the true power of one lies in the strength of the soul,
A force that enables us to reach our ultimate goal.

So let us celebrate the power of one,
And the beauty of individuality that comes with it undone.
For it’s only when we embrace our uniqueness within,
That we truly unleash the power of one and win.

Broken girl

Broken girl

Broken girl, shattered soul,
Lost in a world she can’t control.
Her heart is heavy, burdened with pain,
And she wonders if she’ll ever feel whole again.

She’s been hurt, she’s been betrayed,
Her spirit bruised, her trust decayed.
She tries to hide behind a smile,
But her eyes reveal the pain all the while.

She’s a warrior, fighting every day,
Battling demons that won’t go away.
But sometimes the battles take their toll,
And she feels like she’s losing control.

Broken girl, don’t give up hope,
You’re stronger than you think, you can cope.
Take a deep breath, find your inner peace,
And let your heart and soul release.

The world may be cruel, but you are strong,
And with each day, you’ll inch along.
You’ll find your way, you’ll heal your heart,
And one day, you’ll be whole again, a brand new start.

The Virtue of Waiting

The Virtue of Waiting

Some people say that waiting is a waste of time
That life is too short to sit and watch it pass by
That we should seize the moment and act on every sign
That we should chase our dreams and never stop to ask why

But I believe that waiting is a virtue and a skill
That life is too precious to rush and miss the beauty
That we should savor the moment and enjoy the still
That we should trust our intuition and honor our duty

For waiting teaches us to be patient and humble
To appreciate what we have and what we hope for
To recognize the value of every struggle and stumble
To prepare ourselves for what lies ahead and more

Waiting is not a weakness but a strength
It shows that we have faith and courage in our heart
It proves that we can endure and go to any length
It reveals that we are ready for a new start.

True Success Comes from Inner Growth, Not Just External Recognition

True Success Comes from Inner Growth, Not Just External Recognition

It’s easy to get caught up in the external measures of success – the job title, the salary, the awards and accolades. While these things can certainly be rewarding and validating, true success comes from something much deeper: inner growth.

Inner growth refers to the development and evolution of ourselves as individuals – our beliefs, values, and sense of purpose. It involves becoming more self-aware, improving our relationships with others, and finding meaning and fulfillment in our lives.

External recognition can certainly be a part of this journey, but it is not the ultimate goal. Too often, we strive for success based on what we think society expects of us rather than what aligns with our own values and desires. When we chase after external rewards without considering our own growth and development, we risk feeling unfulfilled and unsatisfied no matter how many achievements we accumulate.

On the other hand, when we prioritize our inner growth, we set ourselves up for true success. By focusing on becoming the best version of ourselves, we can develop the skills and qualities that will help us achieve our goals and make a positive impact on the world around us. We become more resilient, adaptable, and empathetic, which allows us to navigate life’s challenges with grace and purpose.

In summary, true success comes from a balance of external recognition and inner growth. By prioritizing our personal development, we can achieve genuine fulfillment and success that goes beyond the superficial measures of success. So don’t just focus on achievements – take the time to cultivate your own growth and let success follow.

The Strength of Resilience

The Strength of Resilience

Life is full of challenges and hardships
That test our will and spirit every day
We face many obstacles and pitfalls
That make us doubt and question our way

But we have a power within us
That helps us overcome and cope
We have a quality that is a plus
That gives us confidence and hope

It is the strength of resilience
The ability to bounce back and heal
It is the skill of persistence
The courage to face and deal

Resilience is not something we are born with
But something we can learn and grow
Resilience is not a myth
But something we can show.

The Path of Prosperity

The Path of Prosperity

The path of prosperity is not a straight line
But a winding road with twists and turns
It requires patience and perseverance
And a willingness to learn

The path of prosperity is not a smooth ride
But a bumpy journey with ups and downs
It demands courage and resilience
And a readiness to face the frowns

The path of prosperity is not a solo trip
But a collaborative venture with allies and foes
It calls for trust and cooperation
And a openness to new ideas and flows

The path of prosperity is not a guaranteed result
But a possible outcome with risks and rewards
It offers challenges and opportunities
And a chance to grow and soar

Sailboat Sailing in a Fog

Sailboat Sailing in a Fog

A sailboat sailing in a fog,
Navigating waves, like a leapfrog.
The captain’s eyes, scan the unknown,
With faith and courage, they are shown.

The misty shroud, conceals the view,
But the captain knows, what to do.
With a steady hand, and a fearless heart,
They guide the ship, from the start.

The fog may seem, a daunting veil,
But it’s just a test, of will and sail.
For through the mist, a clear path lies,
And the captain steers, with steadfast eyes.

It Was So Painful to Tell

It Was So Painful to Tell

It was so painful to tell,
The words that shook me, and made me swell.
With every breath, a new fear,
And every word, a new tear.

It was so painful to tell,
The secrets hidden, in my shell.
With every look, a new scar,
And every thought, a new bar.

It was so painful to tell,
The truth that haunted, and made me yell.
With every memory, a new pain,
And every moment, a new strain.

But in the end, I found the strength,
To face the world, and go the length.
I found the courage, to speak my mind,
And leave the pain, and the fear behind.

For it’s the truth that sets us free,
And the pain that fades, with each new plea.
It’s the courage we find, to speak our heart,
That sets us free, and makes us restart.

So let us speak up, and break the chain,
And find the strength, to speak our pain.
For in the end, it’s the love we share,
That heals the wounds, and makes us repair.

Love Conquers Fear

Love conquers Fear

In the dark of the night,
When fear comes creeping in,
And shadows loom like monsters,
With a menacing grin.

It’s easy to feel helpless,
To wonder where to turn,
To let the fear take over,
And watch the bridges burn.

But love is there to guide us,
To light the path ahead,
To show us that we’re not alone,
And lift us from our bed.

For love is stronger than the fear,
That threatens to consume,
It’s a beacon in the darkness,
A light that leads us home.

It gives us strength and courage,
To face the darkest night,
To stand up to our fears,
And reclaim our power and might.

So let us hold onto love,
And let it be our guide,
For when we trust in its power,
We’ll never be denied.

For love conquers fear,
And leads us to the light,
A place of hope and healing,
Where everything is right.

Time and Soul

Time and Soul

Time is a thief that steals away,
The moments we hold dear,
But the soul endures forever,
A flame that burns clear.

Time flies by in a blur,
A never-ending race,
But the soul remains steadfast,
A source of strength and grace.

The clock ticks on relentlessly,
As we strive to keep pace,
But the soul knows no limits,
A boundless, infinite space.

For time may fade and wither,
But the soul remains strong,
A beacon of hope and courage,
That carries us along.

So let us cherish each moment,
As time marches on its way,
And hold onto the soul within us,
That shines bright every day.

For time may take its toll,
But the soul endures forever,
A light that guides us through the darkness,
And brings us together.

No Hints or Signs

No Hints or Signs

No hints or signs to guide my way,
Just darkness all around,
I stumble blindly through the night,
With no hope to be found.

The path ahead is shrouded,
In a veil of shadows deep,
And every step is treacherous,
With dangers I can’t see.

I long for just a glimmer,
Of light to show the way,
But all is silent, still, and dark,
As I struggle through the fray.

And yet, somehow, I keep going,
With a strength I didn’t know I had,
For even in the darkest night,
There’s a glimmer of hope to be had.

So I press on with courage,
And a faith that won’t be quenched,
For I know that in the end,
My journey will be well-refinched.

Half Hearted and Lukewarm

Half hearted and lukewarm, that’s how I feel
A soul that’s lost, with no appeal
I’m caught in the middle, with no direction
And no sense of purpose, or true connection

I’m going through the motions, without any zeal
A life that’s empty, and not quite real
I’m searching for something, that’s beyond my grasp
But everything I find, just seems to clasp

Half hearted and lukewarm, it’s a dangerous place
A world of apathy, and no saving grace
It’s the path of least resistance, and no true reward
A life that’s stagnant, and never truly soared

But in the depths of my heart, I know it’s not right
To live a life, that’s half-hearted and tight
I need to find the courage, to break free
And discover the person, that’s truly me

So I’ll take a step forward, and leave behind
The half-hearted and lukewarm, that’s not kind
I’ll find the passion, that’s waiting to ignite
And live a life, that’s truly bright.

The Little Mermaid

The Little Mermaid

Beneath the waves, she swam with grace,
A world of wonder, a magical place,
Her tail a shimmering work of art,
A creature of beauty, set apart.

Her eyes shone bright, with curious glee,
As she explored the depths of the sea,
She longed to know, to understand,
The mysteries of this underwater land.

But up above, a different world,
A place of sunshine, where life unfurled,
And there she saw, with longing heart,
The humans living, a world apart.

She yearned for legs, to walk on land,
To touch the sand, to feel the grand,
And so she made a fateful deal,
To win the love, the prince’s seal.

But in the end, a bittersweet fate,
As love was found, but all too late,
For though her heart was pure and true,
Her life was ended, her time was through.

So let us remember, this little mermaid,
Her courage, her love, her soul unafraid,
For though she’s gone, her story lives on,
A tale of wonder, a song of the dawn.

You must carry life

You must carry life

You must carry life on your shoulders,
With all its joys and all its boulders.
For the road ahead may be steep,
But you have within you the power to leap.

You must carry life with grace,
With each step, you set the pace.
For in your heart, there’s a fire,
That will take you higher and higher.

The Slightest of Apology

Sometimes words can cut like a knife,
And leave us with pain and strife.
A careless remark, a thoughtless deed,
Can plant a seed of hurt and need.

But sometimes all it takes is a word,
A simple gesture, no matter how absurd.
The slightest of apology, a heartfelt plea,
Can heal the wounds and set us free.

It takes courage to admit we’re wrong,
To swallow our pride and sing a new song.
But the sweetest of melodies can be heard,
When we apologize with a sincere word.

For in that moment, we show our strength,
And pave the way for a brighter length.
The slightest of apology, a powerful tool,
Can mend the heart and make us whole.

So if you’ve caused hurt, don’t be afraid,
To apologize, and make the peace cascade.
For in the end, it’s love that we need,
And the slightest of apology, can plant that seed.

The Scream

The scream that echoes, through the night
A piercing sound, that fills with fright
It’s the cry of the soul, in agony
And the pain of the heart, that’s hard to see

It’s the scream of the wounded, and the broken
The ones who feel, like they’re unspoken
It’s the voice of the silent, and the oppressed
The ones who feel, like they’re always repressed

The scream is a call, for help and for aid
A plea for understanding, that’s not to be delayed
It’s the sound of the human, in despair
And the hope for a future, that’s bright and fair

For in the scream, there’s a power so true
A strength that rises, from the heart that’s blue
It’s the voice of the brave, who dare to be heard
And the courage of the ones, who never deterred

So let the scream, be a call to arms
For justice and peace, and all that’s calm
Let it be a reminder, of the power of the voice
And the strength of the human, in every choice.

The Contrast of Life

Life is a contrast, a balance of light and dark,
A mix of joy and sorrow, a journey that leaves its mark.
A tapestry woven with threads of every hue,
A masterpiece that’s rich, a story that’s true.

In the contrast of life, we find the beauty,
In the lows and the highs, we find the duty.
To embrace the moments, the ones that make us whole,
To cherish the memories, the ones that heal the soul.

For in the contrast of life, we find the meaning,
To see the world in a new light, to find the leaning.
To live life to the fullest, to take the leap,
To find the courage to live, to cherish and keep.

So let us embrace the contrast of life,
And trust the journey that’s ahead.
For in the contrast, we’ll find the light,
And a life that’s truly led.

A Beacon Shining Bright #Poetry

A beacon of light shining bright

A beacon shining bright, a light in the night,
A promise of hope, a sign of delight.
It guides us through the darkness, a path of light,
It shows us the way, a beacon of might.

A beacon of courage, a sign of strength,
It’s a reminder that we can go the length.
It shows us the way, a beacon of hope,
It’s a reminder that we can still cope.

A beacon of joy, a sign of love,
It’s a reminder of the things we can rise above.
It lights up our lives, a beacon of life,
It’s a reminder that we can still strive.

You Girl, Do Remain Sane

You Girl, Do Remain Sane

You girl, do remain sane,
In a world that’s sometimes insane.
With chaos and noise, and endless demands,
It’s easy to get lost, in the shifting sands.

But hold on tight, to your inner peace,
And let your light shine, and never cease.
For in this world, we need your grace,
And your strength and courage, to face what we face.
