Best Inner Strength Poems

I wanted to be free of hurt and pain. 
Your cruel act left a horrible stain.

I wanted to just vanish, 
I longed to be banished.

You took my self worth.
and I questioned my birth. 

I was numb,
and I felt dumb. 

I hated life,
I felt only strife.

Don't let your mind lie to you
You can do anything if you try
Your mind will say you can't
But don't ever believe those lies

Secretly hidden in all of us
Is a power that can't be denied
Some will keep it suppressed
They might glance but never find

Others will find...

For some reason unbeknownst to me
I do not stray
This soul is strong in spite of it's emotional dismay
My spirit is my strength today

Inner Strength 

I gave up on me and never gave up on you. In the dimmest light, chance illuminates the real desire to fight. I could never feel justified or right, to take a stance for myself before the needs of others, downfalls are outlined...

Flowing deep within the soul is an inner strength I do not know.
Coming up during troublesome times giving me a peace of mind.

As if the moon is smiling boastfully 
When mist or rain and leaves are moving faster 
than your eye could catch. As if trees 
are curling up in pain beneath your tears, soon to be discovered -

Inner strength 

When under your wings, ill wind dwells
Stuck knee-deep in life’s expansive marsh
Bobbed about by its unending swells
Your curse it seems, is strangely harsh

Then, hope’s decaying carcass’ putrid stench
Ooze from your pores, each and every day
Your burning courage, subdued by its drench
Eroded, confidence chooses...

So many memories wash over me
When I need some time away
Here is where I want to be
Even though I know I shouldn’t keep coming here
There's something about this place that draws me in
And I just can't stay away
I tell...

My mom my friend my inner strength
From the day you made the choice
To bring me up with such an inner voice
That makes it possible for us to rejoice
In my ability to have such poise

With so much direction and meaning
That allows my loving affection to shine...

i flicker
when spoken of

glow
in the breath
you shouldn’t have wasted
on apologies

ash settles like snow
on the bones of yesterday
still warm
if you press hard enough
to blister

i eat
whatever dares to name me--
anger
love
home
god

you told me
i burned too easily
but you lit the match
and called me beautiful

beneath my skin
a cinder waits

i have...
