A Man Of Your Own

The day is filled with echoes of olden time 
In shadows of pain- I watch the skylark climb 
Into the sun so far above the grain 
In fatherly love, my son I think of you again 

Oh father, life is too...

The Beat of Your Own Drum
Roaming around lonesome with no friend to speak 

My days have reached there peak 

I can and only think 

To express this missing lost trink 

With destanys that have not been seen 

From the likes of any beings 

I cease to exist now with altered...

A Taste of Your Own Medicine
7/8/17

Laughing when others crumble
So very far from trustful
Time I cause you trouble
And make you struggle
Whether or not it makes you humble

A swinging pendulum
I'm being genuine
Here with a second wind
And sudden surge of adrenaline
Come get a taste of your own medicine
Since you're daily regimen
Has been taking...

Premium Member Captain Of Your Own Ship
A wise poet said:
“You are captain of your own ship!”
My employer said: “Not here, Buddy!”
My wife said, “Yes dear, after you take
out the garbage and mow the grass…”
My son said, “please come to my baseball
practice, daddy…?” God said: “ask Michael,
my authority on sail
and ultimate direction….”

Forgive me father, it has been a while 
as you know reaching out is not my style 
Life can be tough when following our dreams

Mathematical

Hero of Your Own Story

Every bit of mine was falling apart,
Still I was showcasing myself as a beautiful eye chart

I won’t allow anyone the zone inside,
After all one can’t bear every coming  tide 

I hide my scars, behind those twinkling stars
Every old pain, has become a new weapon

And...

To Look Into the Eyes of Your Own Fear
To look into the eyes of your own fear
To see all the things you've been told
The history, fables, beliefs, and guides
The wishes, hopes, dreams of others
The implanted truths of years
Of repetition
Is brought into clearer focus
When looking into the eyes of another
Who wants to enter in.
Then...

Jesus You Are In a Class of Your Own
Jesus you are in a class of your own
This is why I blast the Word of God on any situation
Praying your promises allow me to see that you,
Jesus are in a class of your own

Can it be done?
Yes, it can because
You are in a class...

Have Scent of Your Own
Just tell me,
How can I feel 
Your inebriating scent;
Strews round the ambiance,
Communicates feelings of touch;
Arouses senses,
Oft I wish to feel;
But sadly you conceal,
In heart shaped safe;
Oh dear! you don't seem you, 
Without the scent of you;
Even rose, Jasmine and apple,
Reveal by scent what they are,
Excellence...

Be the Hero of Your Own Story
Be the hero of your own story
By Michelle Morris
02/07/2022

Be the hero of your own story
Forget expecting someone to step in
You are strong and you can do it
Don't let fear stand in your way

You've survived every challenge
Walked fearlessly through burning flames 
Your demons all bow before...

Getting Out of Your Own Way
getting out of your 
own way is the way 
to achieve goals in 
your life 
sometimes the only 
thing that is getting 
in your way of obtaining 
your dreams is you 
turn of that negative 
voice that tells you 
that it will never work out...

The Presence of Your Own Mistake
The hair begins to rise
the air becomes colder
Second by second

His presence is near
his presence is here

Your bones begin to ach
Your teeth begin to chatter
Your body becomes so heavy
You fall to your knees
for his presence, is to powerful

The depree from your surroundings form together
and there is...
