Many Ways We May Judge

Many Ways We May Judge

Are many various ways we may judge;
Like stick together when we did fudge;
Get a grip;
Facts skip,
Or slowly push forward after we nudge.

Premium Member Eap -Fear

Fear is the impetus which doubt provides:
with the roiling of false pride
of the sought for safety decry!
By the power of prophesy let fear hide
as the brave push forward let love abide.

A Future -

Helping me push forward, 
Just move my pain aside...
To show me I am worth it,
No longer a needing to hide...
This deep feeling of emotion,
Making me want to cry...
Pushing the hurt way down deep,
Wanting only to just die...

5'2 and Strong

The fraying thread in which holds me,
So weak and worn, I know.....I see.
Another challenge has begun ahead,
I want to run but push forward instead.
Breathing deeply, then... exhaling my fear,
Gaining strength from loves both far and here.

Dead Inside

Frustration builds,
Why can't they see...
They are the ones,
Slowly killing me...

Living in denial,
Just won't do...
I push forward,
Wishing for anew...

I didn't ask to be sick,
Yet this is it...
I wear a smile,
But feel like s*** ...

Heart Within Water

Strong water so eternal
Seep back, mighty push forward
Kings of ocean heightens
Relating to the noise and sight
Dancers enter and fold forward
Hungry to explore - seeps over
As pureness of a coconut smashing
Spits milk and lets roar
Awaiting time to enter our world

Dreams, Or Reality

Dreams, or the real world?
Which one do you prefer to...
Live in, in your life?

To really live you...
Must have dreams to push forward...
We need dreams to live...

So we can have hope...
That the world isn't as bad...
As we think it is...

Dreams, or the real world?

YOU

Lost inside,
I need U as my own...
I wonder around,
Suddenly, my mind is blown...
My mother judges,
I know, she's wrong...
For YOU,
My heart beats strong...
I will push forward,
My "life" aches...
Without you, 
I'll no longer wake...
Without you,
My life will not forsake...

Foolish Pride

Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Flashing brightly in the dark
You fight so hard to impress the earth
No one seems to care
Greatness and power are what you seek
Both as far from your reach as you are from mine
You push forward ever stronger
Burning out so quickly
Fading, fading, little speck

Doubt

When you start to doubt
Stop
Look at all that is around you
Remember what you would never let go
Think of the things that really matter
Keep all these memories and thoughts near
Now push forward
onto the next day
So you may make more to carry with
and to help make it easier
Easier to take that step

Not So Sudden

I just "can't" anymore,
I feel so... "Sore".
It hurts so much,
Forever heartache...
What's the point of "therefore"?
To push forward,
Feels, pointless...
Empty... 
My heart aches,
For love,
For worth...
To know, can I be more?
One more cut...
Just a lil deeper,
Just one more...
Now I shall sleep,
Forevermore...

Rude Customers

Let me not hear and let me not see.
Let me not speak the anger in me.

Let me take each day as it goes.
Let not my words run as free as the river flows.

Let my Good days keep a steady ryme.
Let my happy thoughts push forward the time.

Let not this hostile man ruine my smile.
Let not a frown on my face run for a mile.

A Road Unknown

Traveling a road unknown
To a place far in the distance
Surrounded by uncertainty you carry on 
Holding on to your sense of courage

The darkness draws nearer 

Challenging the storm you push forward
No sense of familiarity
The rain beats down, lightning fills the sky
You can never know what’s ahead
Traveling a road unknown

The Tiny River

The Tiny River

I am that which flows freely, 
never stopping.
I move forward making my way around obstacles in my path.
I create new life and sustain the existing,
nurturing my surroundings. 
I rise and fall but push forward peacefully for the sake of all life. 
I am small but connect in a way that's never ending. 
I am everything to all.

Idk

keep going 
our youll never make it 
dont give up 
push forward
life is hard
once your on your own youll
look back on your 
old life and see that you 
had a good life as a 
kid after alll
and youll always want to back 
to when you 
were a kid 
an enjoy it 
better
so look at it this way
if you quit youll never learn
how good it really was

Smile

When things get tough,
Just keep smiling and push forward.
Things can get hard, but don't worry.
If it's something you can change, change it.
If it's not why dwell on it?
What does worrying do? Nothing.
There is always gonna be something in life.
All we can do is keep moving forward, smile,
 And remember everything we have and wouldn't change.
Things will get better.
You'll see.

The path

Show me the last time I truly saw your face.
This has to be just short of insane.
This path we are walking doesn't feel safe.

I stumble as push forward
bones and dreams of some other time and place.
Three steps was a lifetime ago.

No vision nor eye for seeing. 
looking back through fogy memories
careful not to skip back into reality.
this path we are walking doesn't feel safe.

More Precious Than Gold

The script of experience,
endorsing our wills
banking our choices,
paying our bills

Crediting our memory
for what lies ahead
debentures of faith
the black and the red

A ledger retallied, 
both columns in sync
the plus and the minus,
indelible ink

Its summary left open,
all errors erased
with loans to push forward
—new funding in place

Premium Member Buds of Spring

On a dark dreary spring day
where the buds 
cling to barren trees
with no spring rain
the process is slowed
tiny hints of green
peak out from buds
a new season of rebirth
as winter mould disappears
flowers begin to peak
from their long rest
wanting the sun's warmth
to push forward growth
each year brings changes
the dryness or wetness
will determine the outcome
of what is to come.

Life

Life

 The window was shaded and tattered
 The walls were dented and battered

 A whistling breeze was heard and 
 goose bumps appeared

 The breeze made me wheeze, the 
 searing pain left no gain!

 Daybreak comes and heartache fades
 years pass with nights full of tears
 days filled with strength & accolades

 The tears in my heart are not 
 mended, but each day I’m rewarded 
 with the courage to push forward!

Let Go

My abundant life is calling me
No dream is lost forever 
It just has a timeline
The order is set out perfectly
There is no need to worry

The power of not knowing 
Sometimes you don’t need the answers
Let life happen without the need to control
Be happy in yourself, in your life 
The rest will flow

I push forward and make the necessary steps
There is no right and wrong 
The path is already planned
You just need to seek 
Have faith

Premium Member Gears

Look closely you will see my gears grinding,
they race like a bullet down the highway;
Ping pong against the walls inside my head,
my hyperactive mind’s always running;
It won’t slow down even on a good day, 
the story behind my eyes is pure dread;
I never see that point of no return 
flying past a sign that says ‘Stay Away’.
Push forward when I should let go instead,
hanging on too long I know I will burn 
                   that thread.

Remove Lens Cover....

As song's come alive
expanding my mind
.........flows to my feet
where I begin dancing with time

Personal space filled
outgrowth is real
sharing my notes
for others to feel

Push forward these feet
as I pound these streets
overflowing satisfaction
for all I greet.....

It's only a moment
a blink of an eye
focus lens shutters
'cause in a blur passes by

Peripheral vision
absorbing light
coloring images
most beautiful sights.....

Rise

Rise 
Out of the ashes
Out of the Darkness
Against the hardships
Don't be stopped, don't be slowed

Rise
Wipe the blood off
Brush the dust and ash
Wash the sweat
Push through the pain and misery, for they are only temporary

Rise
Stronger than you fell
With fire in your soul
With an inferno in your eyes
Push forward, never falter

Rise 
When you think you can't
Rise
When your body wants to fail
Rise
When you want to give up
