Looking through the dark...

You look at the night 

It seems so still, 

Some of us are thriving, and some struggle over that hill. 

The light is removed

You have reached a sore part in your life, 

The poet feels the pain, and he may not want to talk

Lets face God together and go for that walk. 

Tomorrow is the prize

Be thankful to God, from there is no surprise. 

People will leave

And People will go,

That is part of the journey called 'life'

You may have offspring, and others not

Life is there for you to embue, give that thing called life a 'shot'.

Calm Down...

Calm down

Speak to God today, 

You are never alone my friend, you are free to go or stay.

Calm down, 

Remember I love you more and more each day,

Time will soon pass, 

Nothing on this earth is able to foreseeably last. 

Calm down, 

I know life is awful as we speak, 

I am okay, but it's you we are looking to help, 

Nothing wrong at times to shout out and yelp. 

Calm down, 

Remember God loves you every second of the day, 

If you are looking for alternatives, 

Then I suggest stay still and pray to God 

and when the tears are removed

There is a spiritual awakening when hurt shall be healed and soothed.

Life begins

​Today is just the start
Yesterday shall have its memories that you won’t be able to forget,
The time is focused on today, here is the time we shall need to reset. 

Listen to your hope
Listen to your prayer, 
Life is yours to go and grab, 
I too have made plenty of mistakes and been reminded what I did time and time again,
I ignore those people now, as it’s my time to focus on my higher power and transcend. 

This isn’t a point to prove poem
This is about the facts which present themselves clearly,
This is your walk to think and go for it now,
Life is yours, as God prevents you to throw in the towel. 

So keep fighting 
Keep loving too, 
Now is all we have, so why moan?
The fact is Jesus said through the Father you are never alone.

The time we have

​The time we have is reflective
It can be used for good or bad,
The aim is never to go to that’s place that’s persistently sad…

We learn each day
We try new things,
And we are often hard on ourselves , that is what we do,
And wonder why we did that? As at that time we thought we knew. 

I use to seek perfection 
But now I have peace with God,
Things are not great, 
but I am praying and trying, that moment is never too late.

I am a recovering alcoholic 
I am responsible for those wild times, 
Blaming others when it was myself that I needed to find.

So bless you 
Have a good day, 
We need to keep on going, one day the chaos shall go away.

Others opinion doesn’t matter..

​Others’ opinion doesn’t matter 
Others’ opinion can also lead them to say “I don’t know what I am saying”,
I ignore those people especially for my mental health, 
Therefore I use my patience along with holding my stealth. 

Your opinion of you counts 
Don’t get an ego, just do a job and try your best,
Nothing has to be perfect, sometimes perfection is settling for something less. 

Your humility will help you 
Your love for people shall grow,
That comes with prayer and calmness, and the shine of your spirit shall be guided through a harness.

People’s opinions of you has never mattered, 
Their voice is empty because they don’t know the real you, 
Today is what matters, not the past
The present.., right NOW! That is what lasts.

Slow down…

​slow down
You aren’t in a rush,
This is a poem for me when the speed takes place,
Others will try to rile you, that is what humans try to do;
Find peace and space… ultimately for you. 

So if you worry, then leave me alone
I hand it over to God when those things take place, 
I am only promised today, so my last day I shall look forward to embrace. 

I rather pray then instil a worry of sorts,
The problem won’t go away, as you look for a solution
I sought towards my higher power to get involved with my inclusion. 

Like I said, take it easy
You are a child of the almighty, that calm can be given freely. 

Tomorrow is here, so thank you for reading these words,
Hope surrounds hope, this is what I have learned.

Life continues

​You appreciate the good when the bad takes place, 
Life continues regardless, that is life after all, so don’t try to act in haste. 

You appreciate the good when life turns on its head, 
You know who is there for you, even if they say ‘good night’ before they go to bed. 

You learn the struggles by being patient with yourself; 
That isn’t easy to do, look after your spiritual wealth. 

We must go on regardless,
Life can have its stumbles on the way,
So be polite to someone, even if they are hard on themselves and you,
Stay with your higher power, the one who shall see you through.
