Em resumo:
você pode motivar melhor
com palavras gentis

Let situations
Be your motivation
For restoration.
With acclamation.

Let no aberration
Nor excoriation,
Disturb your focus.
Stay put in your direction....

was 
strong
Obey

Inspiration

not

I’m not afraid of this.
To ease the pain this wicked way, leave
it be to remain twisted I’m not ok.
Devoted to cut was the motive for blood,

thoughtful sounds of meaningless intent,

unanswered calls for the insightful motive,

simple as such, silly as much,

jotting the illogical flow of blurbs....

Happy feels easy
Sorrow heaps plenty


Sadness feels heavy
Placid prompts cheery


Motive moves fancy
Discrete sows amply 


Divine mind inspires
Human kind conspires

Cradled
to be a man;
with knowledge of wisdom.
True convictions lasting daily
never questioning why or answering
with an unintended motive.
Sacrificial and brave
which was born and
Cradled
