Creation…brings aggravation,
what I’m plinking…can’t match what I’m thinking.
It’s this way…since our early days,
sad to say; but I’ll keep going.
What I see…lives only in me,
can’t come out…wants to, but not allowed,
hear it plain…what I make to play,
ain’t the same; but I’ll keep going.
The details…I try to no avail,
share what’s clear…make it all appear,
always fails…what I write down seems pale,
gnash and wail; but I’ll keep going.
His image…our work just a scrimmage,
not the game…that’s well beyond our brains,
has to be…full force we can’t see,
beyond me; but I’ll keep going.
And I bet…most folks will forget,
roll their eyes…he thinks he’s worth our time,
or they blast…it seems a thankless task,
makes you crash; but I’ll keep going.
What is true…we can’t do it for you,
always there…can drive some to despair,
never ends…something now comes again,
cannot mend, if I don’t keep going…
We all wish for something more than what we see,
We’re all searching for a place where we can be free.
With every step we take, the stakes are high,
But we lift each other up, make our spirits fly.
Today was so very brutal.
I felt my strength worked to the bone.
My family doesn’t seem to care.
At times, I feel so alone.
All the thoughts of would’ve, could’ve, should’ve come rushing to my mind.
There are many peaks and valleys, as I keep moving through my life.
The devil has always been right there, to discouraged and accuse.
But sometimes I feel he doesn’t need much help as others seem to fit the bill.
What now, I can’t go back.
What now, the future seems unclear.
Then my God gently reminds me, my child, you don’t belong here!
Your home will be in heaven, and my Son will take you there someday!
You gave your life to Jesus, and He will help you along the way.
You don’t need to worry, He’ll be with you in each moment of time.
They’ll never understand you, my child, because many did not understand me.
Just put your hand in your Savior’s hand and He’ll clear the path, you’ll see!
Sweet little one,
Please don't cry.
Don’t shed your tears,
Don’t hide your face,
Step into the light.
Don’t be afraid.
Know that I am here,
Know that I am by your side,
Through the thick and the thin.
So don’t you shy away,
You can take on the world,
Face your fears head-on,
Show them what you're made of.
Show the world you’re not backing down now.
Tell the world you won’t be chained down.
Show them you will soar high in the air.
Sweet little one,
Don’t you cry now.
Show them you are strong and proud.
Know that I am by your side
Through thick and thin.
We aren’t backing down now,
Prove to them you are enough,
Show them the truth;
You are tough.
And even when they try to pull you down
Keep on going, stand up proud.
Don’t look back,
Look to the future.
Show them you can change the world.
So, my sweet little one,
Do not cry,
Lift your head up to the sky.
Raise your voice into the night.
Show the world you will fight.
How can you get to what's in your future if you keep reliving the past?No matter what you've been through, remember the sun will shine again, the storm never last. Your destiny isn't canceled because of the mistakes you've made, show yourself some compassion and grace. Don't compare yourself to others, stay in your own lane and run your own race. You are worthy and loved; you're enough so don't ever forget who you are. You're a winner,an overcomer, a victor; you're a bright and shining star. You are not here by accident, so keep going; don't give up and never forget, you are fearfully and wonderfully made by the Most High. So believe in yourself, dare to dream big, and keep reaching for the sky!

Seeing life's stuff through,
Cheerings all champs, we are
Surviving, thriving
Thoughts, love for human race.

Seeing life's stuff through,

Thoughts, love for human race.
Nobody knows what to say,
Try to carry on as if it's just another day.
Things will be alright,
One day this horror will be out of sight.
Just try to keep it together, don't let them see you cry,
Things are sure to get better as time goes flying by.
But nobody knows what you feel,
You feel like your spinning like a speeding bicycle wheel.
You feel like you cannot even get out of bed,
Others say, come on be brave it's all just inside your head.
But they don't know the feeling that it should have been me,
My little girl was faultless, she just deserved to be.
Was it all my fault, am I to blame?
It just goes around in my head, just filling me with shame.
That horrible thing that took her to early from this world,
Hangs over everything, like a dense dark, terrible cloud.
But we all have to keep our chins up and make things seem good,
So, her own little girls have a happy life just like they should.
There's never a deep enough hole in life that you can't get out of
Let's not wait for tomorrow
When we have lot of hours today
Let's not miss yesterday
Breathing in lot of sorrows
Heroes will always pass
Records will always crash
Those on a mission
Are the only ones with the vision
To others, you're blind
Sometimes you feel left behind
Your plan
Might have nowhere to land
But purpose
Always pose
And stare
At you till you're stirred
If your craft doesn't make you cry
Then your tears are an eyewash
Why wait when you can try and retry
Maybe all you need is a brainwash
Not everyone had to sleep to have a dream
Not everyone needed eyes to see
But we all want everything to hear us when we arrive, knowing that all things hear even the deaf
It's okay to cry
But don't faint
Let's try and retry and never stop
WE ARE MORE THAN WE THINK WE ARE.
- Micgray
DON'T LIVE FOR THE RECORDS OR THE FAME
MEET WITH PURPOSE DEAR.
Bad things happen to good people
It’s not fair but you have to dare to keep going
Because there will always be something in you that believes
That the impossible can be achieved!
In confusion you will know that
Greater things are inevitable and you will know that
Your destiny can’t be stopped because of a bad event!
Sometimes things fall apart and
Sometimes you need to remind yourself that
You will not fold and not become the monster that
The ‘situation’ would like you to be!
Bad things happen to good people
But this is not the time to give up!
This is the time to show that Good triumphs over bad
Your situation is not too dead that
It cannot be revived
Your situation is not too dead that
It cannot be renewed
Your situation is not too dead that
It cannot be restored
Bad things happen to good people
But in confusion you will know that
Greater things are inevitable and you will know that
Your destiny can’t be stopped because of a bad event!

In whispered darkness, pillows hold our words,
Love's deception dances, tangled, unheard.
Silent confessions, veiled in satin sheets,
A clandestine tango where gossip meets.
Promises whispered, secrets tightly kept,
Yet shadows dance on whispers never properly kept.
For love's deception thrives on tongues aflame,
Spreading like wildfire, consuming their game.
Whispered truths, distorted by passing lips,
Gossip's sweet poison, a venom that drips.
Pillow talk, a web spun with deceit's thread,
Love's deception, where truth and lies are wed.
Believe me
Today,
You are so
Powerful than
Your challenges.
Go,
Keep going
Goooooooh!
You are so
Close to the peak.

With every step you take,
A new road you shall make.
Obstacles may come your way,
But don't let them make you sway.
The road may be long and winding,
But keep moving and never mind the blinding.
For in the end, you will see,
All the effort and hard work will set you free.
When the world seems dark and grim,
Let hope and faith shine within.
Believe in yourself and what you can do,
And soon your dreams will come true.
So don't give up when the going gets tough,
Just keep pushing and never give up.
For every dream is within your reach,
All you need is the courage to take the leap.
So rise up and embrace your fate,
With every step, conquer the great.
Believe in yourself and you will see,
You can be anything you want to be.
You're not weak, you've just been strong for too long.
Knowing you, you won't even speak.
You probably think you're doing something wrong.
That fake smile, again flashing all your teeth and the little giggle to hide the pain,
burrying your feelings beneath.
Stop it.
Stop acting like you're to blame.
So what if you're not perfect.
Quit playing this sick game.
Use all your might. Reach the places you seek.
You're right, I'm not weak.
