Here's To

Here's to....


Here' s to the times I've felt elated
Here's to the times I've had emotions deflated...
Every passing moment has always been a worthy opponent...
Not everything is crystal clear
Maybe thats what had caused the fear...

Troubles I've overcome
Triumphant I've won....

Honest I'll be cause thats not how its always been...
Days existed when the heart and mind felt defeated...
Nights passed by with drops of cry....

Just when things seem worse...
There is an amazing will within that doesn't want to have an outburst.....
Just an optimistic force and power I've adored...
Dwelling within my conscience when it was once bored....

Nah!!!..its not always easy...
Gets the better of you at times....
Failures I've had..
Frustration I've known...
Impatient I was...
Coz I didn't want to be torn....

Then there's that sudden voice ....
It whispers sweet advice ...
Distinguishes what you were and what you are...
Gives you great hope owing to what will be...
But guess what...U gotta make sure you hear that voice...



Try not to let the unknown mute you within.... 
The unknown have never known you and never will...
But dear good soul...u have and always will....

Don't cloud your mind deary...
Your heart is trying its best not to break apart....

So here's to those times i've been lost and found...
Here's to the scary thoughts my mind has fought...
And here's to my heart to whose advice i stayed bound...

-VANESSA

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
