I Will Prevail
I have been told that I will never exceed.
I have been told that I am living in a dream.
I have been pushed to the side by many of my peers.
I have heard of the struggles that were present before me.
I have been told that I will never exceed.
I have been told that I am living in a dream.
I have been pushed to the side by many of my peers.
I have heard of the struggles that were present before me.
This poem hits me right smack in the heart. I feel it in the depts of my soul. You see, I lost my son, my only child coming up on 9 years. He was only 20 years old. And he was such an old...

We wait for what we long for.
We long for what we need.
Impatience and anxiety

Sometimes you may think you're alone,
And your feelings make you seem like a clone.
Deep down you are whole,
Not an empty bowl.
Life has never been easy for me. I was born into a broken home, and I suffered a lot of things.

When your mind is set
On a splendid thing you want to do,
There are some who will shrug,
Like you don't have a clue.
Look not back on yesterday
or what you have left behind.
For only today is yours to claim,
and this moment only is your time.
Very easy read. Very good content. Advice I agree with. It can be hard for me to leave yesterday behind, but I can't relive it. So, I access it for what I did well and wrong. I try to learn...

Every time I try and sit and try and make a change,
I always try and think of things that I could rearrange.
And when I find the meaning of life and lessons that are taught,
I connect with you totally. I think of this and that, try to do and live differently, yet I remain in the circle of life's hostility.

they need space to
move around in.
they don't fit into little
Work what you've got and be proud of it. Someone else probably wishes they had what you've got.
Life is a carousel, always going forward, never going back.
Existence is a hard thing to keep when you stop trying.
To live a life, you must want to live.
To want to live you must find a way.
I will walk slowly through this day;
I leave what is not needed behind from yesterday.
I will treasure all the knowledge to move forward.
What I do today will not change or erase the past..
