I Fear No More

One day I jumped
Quick in to the Sand
There was no one
there holding my
hand
I felt myself
sinking, I had no
pain
I was definitely
drowning, suddenly
aware of every grain

This was quicksand,
and surely I’d be
dead
Soon I realized my
troubles were all in
my head
That’s when I
remembered a
swimming technique,
flat and spread
I think the best
swimmers call this a
tread

Within an instant my
direction was
changed 
Sinking to rising,
no longer in chained
Once I was freed It
came apparently
clear
What I was feeling
was a product of
fear

I Fear No More

Pure Energy

You are the most powerful person I know.
However, because you do not recognize this power, I can only see a clouded version of you.

You are the most powerful person I know.
However, due to the lack of understanding, you project to me energy less than what is real.

You are the most powerful person I know.
However, the vitality residing in you is diffused, and flicker in randomness.

You are the most powerful person I know.
However, your beliefs dictate you close your eyes to the power that is truly you.

You are the most powerful person I know.
However, your yesterday confirms to me through reflection, you do not trust in today.

You are the most powerful person I know.
Now that you recognize who you are, I can distinguish you near or far.

You are the most powerful person I know.
You are, you are, you are, Pure Energy.

Goal Accomplished

I set a small goal today

One that could be accomplished

However when I set out on my journey

The goal became monstrous

I thought isn't this the likelihood

The Universe keeping me in check

Making sure my convictions are something I respect

 

I set a small goal this morning

With a smile upon my face

Even as the day went on

My the smile was fixed in place

 

Even as my quest was tested

My joy wavered not

The smile would creep back on my face

Almost frozen in its spot

 

This smile produced aloofness from sneer

Sharp curves twisting from ear to ear

Facial lines that could not be faked

Not even I could predict this much elation

This morning when I arose to wake

I set a small goal today

The goal was accomplished

Listen To Nature

Original Poem By: Michaelson Williams
Title: Listen to Nature

Listen to nature
The birds, the trees
Pay close attention to the falling of the leaves
Understand this is but only one life
Unnecessary to cut tension with a knife

Remembering when you were a child
Knowing nothing more than happiness through a smile
Learning to walk by taking baby steps
Parts of the journey we try to forget

Pushing the memories down, often hoping they quit
Rising back to the surface refusing to submit
Pain and drama often showing as fear
Nothing in this life intrinsically clear

Everything we know is but only a notion
A mixture of dreams, one colossal potion
Positives and negatives on which we will feed
Not knowing exactly which ones to believe


Standing in the rain, feeling every drop
Praying to something, hoping it stops
Let IT go and listen to nature
Turn your gaze; she wants you to face her

Let everything go, plant a new crop
Only then will you realize, that you are the rock
The fire, the water, and even the wind
Listen to Nature, embrace her within.

Expand your mind 
Set off into the Universe
Open the doors in which you haven’t rehearsed
Listen to Nature

Idioms of a Critical Thinker

Attacking others will never gain you ground
You’ll see the enemy when you turn around 

Stand and face the eyes you see
Within the mirror is the inner me

 Gaze upon this sight, until the face is changed
Your thoughts within, soon utterly rearranged

Even as you read, you do not understand
Do to erroneous conditioning, since girl to woman, and boy to man

 Let go of emotions you know that are wrong
 As only the collective suffers, from this detrimental song

 I’ve studied your thoughts and hear you cry
 Struggling with fixations you know are a lie

I study your mind inside and out
Observing your observations of matters you know nothing about

 Someone has deceived you, into believing castles in the sky
 Although you possess the power, you find comfort in not knowing why

You’ve taken a pill, and normal is your sick 
Are these the words of reality or just simple limerick? 

You Be The Judge.

Peace of Nature

The life you live is just an Illusion
Stay away from all the Confusion
Put your bare feet in the Grass, Dirt or Sand
Let Mother Nature take your Hand

Forget about the Past
Don’t worry about the Future
Just let life come to its own Conclusion
It’s time to realize we are all but Same
Mother, Father, Sister, Brother, a Collective
On the same journey, so what’s in a name

Born to the Body
The one we Defend
Break from the Status Quo
Understand the Universe within

What matter how you were Born, or Raised
This part of life is only a Phase
What matter what you were Taught or Believe
Release the Chains that bind you, and life but only a Breeze

The Truest Story I Know

Most of the time we walk in a trance like state
Wondering what topics are worth a debate
Picking ever battle with great care
As there is no one sitting in the opposition’s chair

See the conflict is with ourselves, not another
Not a King, a Queen, or Deity to bother
Not a Mother, Father, a Sister, or Brother

The subject is our dogma; so called system of belief
This is a battle within and it hasn’t been brief

We’ve been told to have faith and just let it be
To” live and let live” and forget about conspiracy
However, faith is part of a counterfeit; a manmade control
One set in place, in order to disconnect us from our soul

It’s a guided missile of sorts
There to keep us from remembering, we’re elements of Source
Connected on a higher plane, where there is no fiction
Not like here and now trapped in our own afflictions

We cannot see our power in the light of day
It is only in our dreams of night, are we able to find the way
So we sleep often, as much as we can
Seeking stillness in dream realms where harmony stands

Only there can we leap from door to door and open the portals
Positioned completely outside ourselves, much closer to the immortal
Opening locations closed by our human mind 
Conditioned to believe in spaces, consisting of the fabric of time

The funny thing is, time doesn’t exist, and in a bigger twist
Neither does a God, unless We Are It

The Small Child Deceit

When a small child ask us why
They are asking us not to lie

About the world that is ahead
The one we knew before we were dead

Dead in the mind we possess right now
The one causing our smirks and frowns

The world that broke the one we knew
Remember the one that was me and you

The one when we skipped rocks across the pond
During the twilight or breaking dawn

They are asking us to remain true 
To the one that was me and one that was you

The one you dismissed, the one you forgot
Now you’re identifying being put on the spot

You are being called out
Too look within 

Now it comes clearer, you know the space 
When you could look in the mirror and see the face

Of a small child, the familiar friend
When we were young, just like them

I know you could be a slight bit confused 
Maybe even feeling a little bit used

But that is only the adult you, the one incapacitated by fears 
When you finally remember the child in you, the world is ever so clear 

The only feelings left behind, are ones you so choose 
The ones from the Mother’s child, leaving you completely and utterly soothed 

Those are the ones consistent; not loose, the ones reflecting in times of youth 
Deep within every essence of truth, before the lies that were told to you
