81. Today I Am Afraid
Overcoming Fear Of The UnknownToday I felt lost.
I couldn't find Your hand.
I felt so alone,
I just don't understand.
Today I am afraid,
For tomorrow's troubles may bring
More pain than today.
I may not last; I'll continue to pray.
Why do I worry about tomorrow?
Today brings enough fear;
For today was the tomorrow
That seemed all too near.
Today I am afraid,
For tomorrow's troubles may bring
More pain than today
I may not last; I'll continue to pray.
I'll never forget about the past.
My pain will never let me.
Tomorrow is how long it will last.
By then I may be free. -
82. Daily Reminder That You Are Worthy
And on Tuesdays you must look at
yourself in the mirror and say
“I am worthy. I need to be here.
And I am grateful I am.
There is beauty in my life and
I will find it. There is strength
in my soul and I will trust it.
There is purpose in my path and
I will unravel it. There is magic
in who I am and I will
believe in it.”
And then go climb your mountains
for today. And go find some
spectacular views.

83. For Manchester
Poem About Uniting Together Against TerrorismWe can't but feel utter shock,
and we're emotionally drained.
Yet deep within our sadness,
some unity is gained.
Wherever we may come from,
and no matter our belief,
we stand tall as a nation.
We are united in our grief.
They were parents with young children.
They were adults and just a teen.
They were an uncle, aunt, and cousin,
and all the family in between.
So in regards to reason,
we can search and take a look...
No religion condones murder.
It's not in any holy book!
Our loved ones may have fallen
due to the extremity of sin.
But our strength will not be broken,
and TERROR will never win! -
84. Even When; Especially When
Even when you feel like a million scattered pieces,
you are still whole.
Even when you’re unsure of the path you’re walking,
you still have purpose.
Even when your lover leaves you empty and begging,
you are still loved.
Even when you’ve tried and tried and failed and failed,
you are still worthy.
Even when;
especially when.

85. My Morals Define Me
Empowering Poem About Self-AcceptanceI have never done drugs and never will.
I don't give into peer pressure.
I believe that drugs are lame.
Drugs cause you to make irresponsible decisions.
I'd rather be high on life than high on drugs.
I choose not to harm my body with illegal substances.
I do what I want and if this makes me a loser, then so be it.
I am proud to be a virgin.
I'm not ditzy or dumb.
I don't believe everything I am told.
Abstinence is the key, so I believe.
I am not ready for a child nor disgusting diseases.
My virginity is my sanctuary.
If this makes me a loser, then so be it.
Violence is never the answer.
Physical disputes are pointless and solve nothing.
It is unnecessary and a waste of time.
I shall never stoop down to that level of immaturity.
I'd rather walk away and be the bigger person.
If this makes me a loser, then so be it.
Being a party girl is not who I am.
Partying is not what life is all about.
Life does not revolve around alcohol, drugs, and music.
There are more important things in life than parties.
I have the rest of my life to party;
For now I choose to focus on my future and career.
If this makes me a loser, then so be it.
I don't need to dress like a hoochie to get attention.
I am classy not trashy.
I'd rather be noticed for my intelligence than my looks.
I choose to have dignity and respect for my body.
I'd rather be liked for who I am than for what I look like.
If this makes me a loser, then so be it.
I am not a follower.
I control my own mind and make my own decisions.
I stand up for what I believe in and defend my opinions.
I'd rather be hated for being myself than liked for someone I am not.
If this makes me a loser, then so be it.
I am unique and one of a kind.
I am who I am
And will never change for anyone.
I will always be me, now and forever.
If this makes me a loser, then maybe I am. -

87. Song For The World
Peace, Love And HarmonyIf I could sing a song for the world, then it would be
A song for peace and love and harmony.
To cherish all the moments we hold so dear
And only cry those happy tears.
Let's not use weapons to fight, but fight instead
To bring together every woman and man.
That each child grows up and knows their worth,
So they can shine their blessings on earth.
Everyone is born with special gifts sent from above;
It's time to use them all and spread the love. -
88. I Hear America Singing
I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear,
Those of mechanics, each one singing his as it should be blithe and strong,
The carpenter singing his as he measures his plank or beam,
The mason singing his as he makes ready for work, or leaves off work,
The boatman singing what belongs to him in his boat, the deckhand singing on the steamboat deck,
The shoemaker singing as he sits on his bench, the hatter singing as he stands,
The wood-cutter's song, the ploughboy's on his way in the morning, or at noon intermission or at sundown,
The delicious singing of the mother, or of the young wife at work, or of the girl sewing or washing,
Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else,
The day what belongs to the day - at night the party of young fellows, robust, friendly,
Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs. -
89. Selfless
Leave A LegacyThis is about a legacy.
A legacy by a man no one knows.
A legacy left cold.
A legacy left in the dark.
A legacy..... left behind.
No one asks, no one thinks.
No one hears, and no one cares.
A honest man brought down by power.
Power of corruption, power of determination.
People separated by the past,
People fighting, dying for nothing,
Some hiding, wondering what's next.
Things everyone thinks.
Things no one says.
Brought down for being different,
Brought down for being right.
Wrong for the right reasons,
Right for the wrong reasons.
Truthfully what's right?
Someone that tells you,
Or what your heart says?
Some things can't be determined.
Others shouldn't be.
Fears never faced.
Fears just growing,
Fears eating away at you,
Away at me, away at existence.
Existence that people forgot,
Values left and lost.
No remorse. No dignity,
NO HONOR!!
A life that's not worth living.
A life that's not worth dying.
Buried deep in us resides a place of unity.
A place with brothers and sisters,
A place of internal rest,
Rest from crime and violence.
Dishonest people changing their ways,
Not for themselves but for no one.
Existence is always there.
Footprints in the heart,
Footprints in the soul.
A name left behind with a memory,
Forgotten in time by all with the
Lost arch of life
Behind a shielded mirror,
Behind an indestructible horror.
Be one within but be one at all.
Share your dreams, share your fears.
Page by page is turning ash to ash,
Focusing on yourself.
Help your family, while helping mankind,
And you'll find that life will get lighter.
Dreams, fate, and wishes.
Are these things some believe?
And others demise.
Who are you to judge me?
Who are you to judge anyone?
Such things can't be determined by one,
But by all in faith and happiness.
A moment of silence for all,
For all who died.
People we don't know,
People that would die for us,
For what they believe in.
A moment of silence for more,
All the silence of eternity wouldn't,
Wouldn't be enough for those......

90. America The Beautiful
O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea.
O beautiful for pilgrim feet,
Whose stern, impassioned stress
A thoroughfare of freedom beat
Across the wilderness!
America! America!
God mend thine ev’ry flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law.
O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine,
Till all success be nobleness,
And ev’ry gain divine.
O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam,
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea. -
91. Never Let Go
Influential Poem Of A Father's Love For His DaughterOne by one.
Take one step at a time,
Said her daddy, teaching her to walk,
The little girl only one year old.
She looked up and smiled
And let go of his hand.
Now seventeen years old,
Out driving in the snow.
Driving too fast, hitting a pole.
After getting the news,
Her dad rushes to her.
Hearing the terrible news:
She may never walk again.
One by one, my dear.
Take one step at a time,
Said her daddy teaching
Her to walk again.
She looked up with a smile,
As she did sixteen years ago and
Let go of his hand for the last time. -
92. I Believe
Believe In Yourself And You'll Accomplish AnythingInto this world I came,
The light of the sun,
On my face I craved.
In the cool breezing wind,
Under the moonlight I sat,
I thought,
I pondered,
I knew,
I was great.
Slowly they got to me,
Their expectations,
I couldn't catch up.
Their opinions,
They cut to the deep.
Their constant watch,
I became stunned.
Beauty faded,
Strength waxed away,
And then I grew up.
They mattered no more.
All the lies I believed,
Like a flood on sloppy hills,
I let them run down.
New mindsets I built,
Strong confidence I gained,
Because I knew for the best,
It was I that mattered.
Like the Phoenix, I rise,
From the ashes of doubt,
From the ashes of contempt.
Like an eagle I soar,
To the ends of the earth,
To the storms that may be,
Because I have believed
I have all it takes,
I have all I need.
My dreams run wild,
My imagination unlimited.
I know what I want,
I know how to get it.
Like the sun,
I shine my light.
Like the stars,
My glory prevails,
Because I have believed. -
93. Promises To Keep
Motivation For A New YearWe resolve to turn a new leaf in our lives
Yet go back to whining old ways in no time
Why do we break promises ever so often
When we want a better future than our past or present?
Why do we not care for ourselves
Yet want a story that the world will tell?
But if you want to change your story forever
Inspiration and motivation will have to go together
An inspired heart can move mountains and cut the seas
Don't the stories of these people inspire thee?
Then comes the role of a motivated mind
If left idle it can behave weird many a times
Convince the mind before getting down to work
Else you will have to fight yourself first
But the protagonist of your story has the biggest role to play
If you don't care, then nobody will anyway
So be the change, and script your story your way
Start with fulfilling the promises you made
It is said a journey of thousand miles begins with one step
Likewise, success in future depends on the promises you kept
We have a long way to go and many promises to keep
So treasure every moment and every New Year equally -
94. Windows
I looked through others' windows
On an enchanted earth
But out of my own window--
solitude and dearth.
And yet there is a mystery
I cannot understand--
That others through my window
See an enchanted land. -
95. This Is Your Time
This is your time
to no longer be who you were,
to rise from the embers,
to be guided by Her.
This is your time
to be carried by Grace,
out of the matrix
and away from the race.
This is your time
to forever change the rest,
to untame, to shift, to lead,
and live blessed.

96. You Are Enough
You are enough
You have always been enough, and
You will forever be
Enough
no matter what you see
how you feel, or the lies you may
believe
-
97. Solstice
Let Your Light ShineWe are only falling stars,
Fleeting sparks that arc
Across the vast forever of time
Through others' nights,
Only to return as dust to our maker.
And the most we can hope,
In our one brief moment,
Is to brighten their night,
Lead them on their way,
Or just perhaps to grant their wish. -
98. Find You
Find your soul
In your thoughts.
Find your character
In your speech.
Find your love
Through your actions.
Find your mistakes
In your failures.
Find your success
Through your hard work. -
99. Take A Bow
Take a bow, lovely one.
Because you’re tired
And still you’re doing it.
You’re feeling empty
And still you’re giving it.
You’re unsure of yourself
And still you’re being it.
You got hit hard
And still you’re healing it.
Funds are low
And still you’re dreaming it.
Life ain’t so easy right now
And still you’re loving it.
The winds are blowing hard
And still you’re walking it.
Yes, take a bow, lovely one.
(You made it to Friday)

100. I Am A Survivor
I am not everything
that has happened to me.
I am everything I became
while I healed.
Stronger but softer.
Focused but not obsessed.
A teacher but still a student.
I am not broken.
I am beautiful.
I am a survivor.
