Best Willpower Poems
Willpower
What's the hardest thing to do?
It all comes down to life and you.
Lest you find your self controlled,
Learn to harness will, behold.
Power to choose within your soul,
Overcome and destroy control.
With your mind you can achieve,
Endure through, you must believe.
Resist temptation, prepare celebration.

Diminished Willpower
This has to be one of the most common queries:
Why does food that tastes good have too many calories?
Just about anything that has a pleasant taste
adds additional centimeters to my waist.
No matter what the time of the hour,
I become a victim of diminished willpower.
Before I...

WillpowerCast me down, obstruct my ways.
Throw me down, into a maze.
Supress my ideas and my notions,
Let it be a complete commotion.
Dissuade me from trying!
Still baby, you can’t stop me from flying!
Just know that!
I’ll will, I’ll win, I’ll win….
Yeah…. I know I’ll win, i'll win, i'll...

Leftover WillpowerLeftover Willpower
David J Walker
I know
I know
What I said last night
After the last bite of
Turkey and dressing and
Cranberry sauce and
Pumpkin pie
That I
Would never eat again
At least, not this much
So much
That it stretched my belly to
New dimensions forcing me to
Unbutton the waistband...

My Willpower Went AwayMy willpower took a leap
Way down low and very deep
And stayed there refusing to
Come out when I'm close to you
My dark side has taken over
As you slide in really closer
Causing goosebumps on my skin
I need my power back again
But its letting you do what
You want...

I Want But Don't NeedI Want, But Don't Need
Yes, "I Want, But Don't Need" is my waistwatcher creed
as I walk by each vending machine.
All those chocolate chips calling out to my hips,
colored Reese's in pieces - obscene!

Caloric ConundrumThe cheesecake in the bakery I want to devour,
dag-gone my crumbling willpower!
It's cherry topping so high,
makes me want to cry.
I walk on past the candy aisle,
and gaze at the cereal shelves awhile.
Euell Gibbon's "sticks and pebbles"
Grape Nuts brand-
that kind of breakfast I cannot stand.
Give me...

DefiantIn his hey days of youth
defying all obstacles
fiercely independent
reeping honors
medals and awards
he went beyond
further than most men
with sheer willpower
determination
till suddenly
stealth and unforeseen
crept in time
the twilight
of bygone days
like a veil dropping
a hush circling
a mist rolling in
a fog growing denser
around his world
discreetly hovering
slowly closing in

Guard Against ComplacencyIn this journey called life, heed my plea,
And guard against this demon of misery
Beware of its insidious touch, subtle and sly,
For it steals the fire that makes our spirits fly.
A false sense of comfort, safe and securely rest,
Bombarded by routines, a false...

ResurgingI ask for all the pain,
My potential is bound in the chain,
I ask for all the struggle,
My wings caught in rubble.
I ask for all the tears,
More than my eyes bears,
I ask for all the challenges,
In silence my mind plunges.
I ask you to break my will,
At...
