Short Not The Destination Poems

"It's the journey that matters and not the destination."
 I'll bet whoever said that never used public transportation....

Time is resolutely in motion
       In no captivity or subjugation

Let not the caravan of life halt
Love is a journey not a destination

He claims he was born,
without any summon
from his mother,
or a message from his
ancestors’ gods.

He feels like Jonah,
after he was forcefully
swallowed by a big fish.

He believes this world
is not his destination.
His face tells that he was
not ready to be born....

Life is strangely odd, but definitely okay 
Darkness and directionless, I’ll find my way 
It’s about the journey, not the destination 
It’s about the ride there, not the dream vacation

Always stop and smile at where you are 
Cherish the now and your travels thus far
Have fun today, don’t wait until tomorrow
And when you’ve reached the end, you’ll have no sorrow....

My road is a lonely place in the world without you
Never stopping until we reach that spot on our map
Landscapes are changing and yet we last our course
Arriving one day to be where we will stay together
Taking a trip where you escape not its destination
Scenery changes altering the ways in which you see

(I posted this before but changed most of the words and title.)...

not an object,
not a destination,
not in the past,
not in the future,
not a boy,
not a girl,
not an income,
not even a lifestyle,
we go searching for this happiness
as if its a pot of gold
never will you find it, for its something found within
happiness isnt a place, its a state of mind,
so be present in the moment and open your eyes
for you've always had it in you, every breath of your life...

Success is said to be a milestone
But is it a platform or 
a journey?
They define it as destination determined by destiny
but a real thou savvy its importance
For others, success is surmised
by thy position
But you know how often thou
break down
You know what you pay off....
Success is not a destination
but a journey which never ends....


Time to believe in yourself
Time to redefine success...

life is a journey
not a destination

to enjoy the journey
we need to allow the
special moments
to unfold naturally...

...for these special moments
are too few-

and life itself too short-

of all the places that 
I could be...

there is no where else
I would be unless you're
with me...

...when I rest in your arms
the world fades away..

this love begins a new day...
naturally this is my journey...

Faith is not a blind belief
But a trust in something unseen
Faith is not a wishful thinking
But a hope in something real

Faith is not a passive acceptance
But an active engagement
Faith is not a rigid dogma
But a living relationship

Faith is not a burden to bear
But a gift to receive
Faith is not a weakness to hide
But a strength to share

Faith is not a solo journey
But a communal adventure
Faith is not a destination to reach
But a path to follow...
