Best Sell Yourself Short Poems


Premium Member Academic Proverbs
A passage, I read,
in the book of Academic Proverbs,
"Seize the day
and reach for the stars".
Along with many others like
"Follow your dreams,
don't sell yourself short,
and raise the bar".
There was no doubt the wisdom
behind these words.
They resonated well with me
until I got to thinking...

... who created the...

Alone
Open your eyes and embrace the darkness around you
You are alone but this feeling is brand new

This is not a feeling of isolation and despair 
This is not a feeling that you need to beware

You are once again becoming whole 
You are regaining life and...

Days of Deception
Their tongues are coated in a layer of deceit,
And they trample over promises with their feet.
They're beings who are bound by deceptions,
Whose very essence oozes with misconceptions.

They struggle to look you in the eyes,
For their gaze holds nothing but lies.
On occasion they will give you...

Just Be Yourself
Don't pretend to be 
something you are not,
just be yourself
don't be someone that time forgot.

If you feel like singing
sing out, you should be proud,
don't hide in a corner
let yourself be heard, sing out loud.

If you feel like humming
because you don't know the words,
don't ever hum quietly
let...

Trophy
Keep pushing with power,
Continue grinding with passion.
You have a dream to meet,
And a goal to reach.
Work hard everyday
Believe that you will be paid.

Be driven by desire to 
Burn hotter than desert fires.
Anything less than your best
Is settling for what is left.
Don't sell yourself short
By wishing...

Yes You Are
We see the mountains climbing high into the sky.
We see the waterfalls and the beauty of the streams.
I become overwhelmed His Glory makes me cry.
Young men will see visions and old men will dream dreams.
As I see the Creator, His glorious works in all things.
There...

A Voice
I heard a voice ask “why?”
“Why what?”, I replied
What are you doing with your life
I just don’t know sometimes
Don’t you know you’re special
So why do you want to blend
Why sell yourself short
When you can set your own trends
A natural born leader you are
Pave your own...

Start All of the Fun Horn Haiku
Start All of The Fun

Should always support
And never sell yourself short
Or mission abhort.

Do run with plan
And know that you are their man
And know that you can.

Slippery when wet
But you can do it no sweat
Be sure goals are set.

Does sound so scary
Living in monastery
And is cold...

Life is a collection,
and series of choice.
Understanding and learning,
helps give us our voice.

Some choices are easy,
and some can be hard.
Make each choice yourself,
and deal your own cards.

We are what we do,
and not what we have done.
Don't sell yourself short,
life has only begun.

Keep your eye on...

Telling
sell yourself short
go ahead
make excuses
go ahead
I'll stay and watch your mouth move
and read your 
pontification
but I know you are settling
for less than you are worth
my friend
your fear of being alone is harder, stronger, bigger
and you'll avoid embarrasment any day
how do you explain
to man after man
how...

Premium Member The Best of You
Saying "I Love You" isn't just a commitment to another.  
It's not a phrase just reserved for a relationship or lover.

It's a commitment to yourself and own sense of worth.
It's a gift you were given on the day of your birth.
  
So don't...

Do you prove you're a whore or more sell yourself short
When you say, "I'm a Christian! I'm Right! I am SAVED!"
Is there 'FAITH' in this statement? Don't whores know they sin?
Don't most alcohol addicts confess they're not strong
In themselves? Who brags that days sober proves...
