Inspirational Poems

You can do it

DownUp 0

We can see that you’re not happy,
We can see that you’re confused and sad,
We can see that you’re not the same kirah,
That we all once had.

What you’re doing is wrong
What you’re doing is bad,
We miss the old kirah,
And we want her back.

There is a monster deep inside,
Trying to beat you,
But you’ve got to be strong,
You have to break through.

I wish you could have seen the beauty,
That everyone else saw,
God made you in his image,
Which means you’re perfect,
The way you are.

Hunger is definitely not just a feeling,
Thinness is definitely not a skill,
You may not believe this now,
But in time you will.

One day you’ll look in the mirror
And accept what you see
You’ll stop looking at everyone else
And thinking that’s the way to be.

I know I’m not perfect,
I have a long way to go,
I really don’t care what they think of me
Because I’m not for show.

You should think the same,
Because there’s so much more to you,
You have the strength to control
Everything you do.

No one can make you get better,
Kirah, you have to want to,
You have to accept yourself,
And stop doing, what you do.

So much has already been damaged,
So much has already gone wrong,
You’ve found the road to recovery,
And it’s very long.

You have to believe in yourself,
You have to know you can do this,
You can’t give up,
I know you can do it.

Have Strength

DownUp +1

Be strong in these difficult times,
Have faith to make things right,
Believe that you can make a change,
And if you must then fight.

Strength can get you through anything,
Along with praying each and every day,
God knows what you are going through,
So why not do it today.

Now rise up and take a stand,
And when you do you will see,
That you always had it in yourself,
And now you are finally free.

Winter in the city

DownUp 0

Look! The snows fall all around
See how they hide the cold, dead ground,
But what will cover up our hurt,
And rid our hearts of frozen dirt?

With secrets, lies, and masks we’ll hide
The truth, our fears, ourselves inside,
We’ll walk about as someone else,
Cuz we’re not good enough ourselves.

We’re all to fat, too dumb, too smart,
We’re bad at sports or we suck at art,
We’re all too shy or we’re not that funny,
We’re all too poor or we’ve too much money.

So we must bury who we are
Behind some celebrity or star,
We’ll hurt the weak to show we’re strong,
We betray our friends just to belong.

But by all this, will we find,
Happiness or peace of mind?
And if, we know, we hide ourselves,
Can we then trust no one else?

What drives us to seek power and fame,
And to bring glory to our name?
When what is our greatest good,
But to be loved and understood?

So today, I make my stand,
why don’t you take my hand
I am no more, I am no less.
I am cursed, and I am bleat.

So hurt me if you’re feeling weak.
Cheat me if your future’s bleak,
Brag if you’re not all that great.
Insult me if you’re overweight.

I really, truly hope you do,
I’ve such pity in my heart for you.
I’ve made peace with who I am,
But you are like a frightened lamb.

Why do you seek such fleeting things,
And act as gods and golden kings,
For all things in this world will pass,
Only truth and love will last.

So be a fool if you will,
And your own soul go beat and kill.
Though I hope that you’d be free,
And simple, a happy you, you’d be.

And may the sun soon melt this snow,
And reveal the muddy earth below.
May it warmly shine and glow,
And cause the earth to bloom and grow.

And may I be your shinning sun,
And melt your masks one by one.
May I free you from your cell,
And may your life go very well.

MIRRORS OF RUST

DownUp 0

There are two roads:
one in space and another on my way;
I carry with me a tree on my back,
I am mad
but I don’t crack;
my laughter is full of tears,
or maybe I be lost on verge
of my lost years;

I am smoke from a tree
coming down to be a haven soul
blessed with the holy stone,
I shine like the eastern star;
imprisoned in the belly of her,
my grey hand shall heal my soul.
Alone with the mountain and the snow,
Don’t forget to read the signs of a comet,
for ages opens closets,
secrets are spelt bit by bit;
Nests are built for the tail;
Failure reveal looted ego,
foreign strength to eat with the joy
of the struggle.
Leap and learn,
kings are beings
and the creator is a word,
a very, very silent word
spoken in green water
and I am lost to the end.
My lord is my strength.
He let me work nice in mirrors of rust.

The Rainbow

DownUp +1

A ray of sunshine,
A ray of warmth,
Squeezing through
The last of the night.
A drop of water,
A drop of life,
A drop of forever
Glimmering in the light.
Alone, meaningless
Without each other, simple.
One spring morning
They would unite.

On the fern, sparkling,
Or up in the great blue sky,
Anywhere where two can meet
Is where souls can make to fly,
In a moment,
A single second’s time,
As they reach closer to each other,
They both, in their own way, shine.
The light of hope and peace and love
Together they shall reach
Out into the distance,
Freedom flowing into each.

Somewhere in the clouds above,
The gods smile down upon them.
Happiness and joy aloft,
Spread over the land when,
The rainbow forms.

Be Optimistic

DownUp +1

Be optimistic in your life,
Believe that things will go your way,
And if you need a little help,
Take some time and pray.

You need to have positive thoughts,
The negative needs to leave,
And if you think long enough,
You truly will believe.

So you did think good thoughts,
And being optimistic made things right,
And it was all because,
You saw the light.

When the Poetry Met the Song Writer

DownUp +1

I remember the day you first smiled at me
That’s one of the most beautiful smile I see
‘Coz from that time I looked into your eyes, I found serenity
You always make me proud for the friendship you shared with me…

I remember the day I first tell you I can write poems
I told it to you ‘coz you’re too shy about your songs
I told you not to worry about the people may tell you
‘Coz not all has the ability to do the things you can do…

In you I owed the confidence I have
In just one word you take away my doubt
In every piece I make; the happiness I found
‘Coz this is the only way I have for us to bond…

You set aside writing songs
And tried to explore other things
The things that I didn’t like before
Because of you now I adore…

You start to create your own little monster
You address your self as a monster maker
Maybe it’s weird for those who don’t understand
They can never appreciate it if they never look beyond…

Love All the Same

DownUp +1

Bound by affinity
Where no truth seems to honest
And every glance means something more

We have to move forward
Like a car with no direction
A broken compass to guide us
And loss of all direction

We had to learn how to bend
How to scream
And how to love
And it doesn’t matter that I cant speak
For you can hear what i’m not saying

Maybe its not tradition
Its actually rather strange
But with a smile and a heart beat
Its love all the same.

Boarded Up In Blue

DownUp +1

“This house was once a home”, I thought.
Filled with people coming and going,
Living, loving, aging, dying, working, growing;
Not necassarily in that order.
As I road past the building-
the old little house on a tiny plot-
I slowed my pace;
I became enchanted.
My intrigue grew and grew;
I cannot tell you why.
Beyond the fact that the windows,
that once let in the light,
Were now boarded up in blue.
The panes had been replaced by sky blue painted wood.
And now, as viewed the lovely artistry,
All time seemed one, all motion stopped, a perfect peace,
as on a starry night,
took the place of my thoughts.
It lasted but an instant.
I wondered, then, as I returned,
aware of the ‘illusion’,
which one was real, the peace of that instant,
or my seat in the road.
As night turned to day again,
thoughts made their way.
I wished, for a moment,
(I knew more than wished),
that our Souls are like that old house.
At the end of our time
spent here on this earth,
our pain is no longer,
we exist anew,
in spirit and in peace,
as that house!
Boarded Up In Blue

Thoughts

DownUp +35

Whenever I see towards the sky,
I mostly ask the question why…
Why do all things happen in the world?
Why is it that whether a person is happy or sad can never be told?
Thousands of mind, thousands of question arise,
Still people think to be silent is always wise.
All are aware of the things going around,
But what is right and what is wrong can never be found…
There are a hell lot of problems today,
Are these not enough that terrorism is on its way?
People act as if nothing has taken place,
But there’s a lot of insecurity behind each happy face…
Still fighting among ourselves is hardly of any use,
Cause to be united is what we should choose.
So I pray before going to bed today,
That tomorrow would be a better place to live and I m sure that’s what everyone wants to say…

Change

DownUp +5

Life seems to go along.
Each day the sun comes up.
Each night the sun goes down.
Some days are good, some not so much.
Some days hold great joy.
Others hold heartbreak and sorrow.
As I look back on the years
I realize that there were more good than bad.
As the years went by
I was busy with husband,
Children,
Home,
Family.
And while I wasn’t looking closely,
My children grew up.
They moved out.
Some moved away.
I will always be a mother,
But not in the same every day way.
That part of my life,
The part that I had known and loved best
Had changed.
I realized I wasn’t ready.
I didn’t want this change in my life.
Nevertheless it came.

When I was a young mother;
So busy, tired, and sometimes stressed;
My father told me that someday I would look back and see
That these were the best days in my life.
He was right.

Fortunately the changes weren’t all bad.
My children had become great people.
Soon they had children and my role in life had changed again.
I am now Grandma and it is good;
So good.

So through this journey of change,
I have come to realize that it is inevitable and unstoppable.
Change like everything in life is really what we make of it,
How we accept and embrace it.
Growing up;
Marriage;
Children;
Grandchildren;;
And hopefully great grand children; they are good changes to look forward to.
I try to remember that always.

Desire

DownUp +6

Desire is like a fire.
It burns within the soul
It cannot be put out
and it makes a person whole

Setting it aside would make one feel content
But contentment only happens for a while
For desire builds up
And soon, there’s more in life to aspire

Behold in life a transition
There arise such dreams and visions
Along comes the longing to fulfill
Such high ambitions

All life long builds up the desire
Until soon it will become so great
Until one will take action
Life will just seem a worthless fate.

Because of you

DownUp +23

Because of you,
I’m able to see the sunshine behind rain.
Inspiring me to get up!
And to make a new start.

Because of you,
I’m able to see the light behind dark.
Showing me the right path.
And telling me not to go back.

Because of you,
I’m able to hear the silence behind noise.
Asking me to listen.
And keep my heart open.

Because of you,
I’m able to see the stars behind dark clouds.
Encouraging me that dreams could come true…
And just keep my faith in you!

Because of you,
I’m able to laugh behind pain.
Motivating me to be strong, go on…
And success would come along.

Because of you,
I’m able to trust behind betrayal.
Reminding me not to be afraid.
And to still believe…

Because of you,
I’m able to love behind hatred.
Telling me to do the right things.
And forget everything.

Finally I’m here living my life.
No more questions lingering in my mind…
Cause I have found the truth behind all the lies.
And I want to keep it ’til the end of my time…

Staying Strong

DownUp +114

Gonna start running,
Not going to look back.
Gonna show the world my strength,
Gonna get my life on back on track.

Never giving up,
Never giving in.
to the pain in my heart,
or the cuts deep within.

Staying strong,
even though it stings.
And though unstable,
I’m still able,
To make a new beginning.

On My Way…

DownUp +43

I am who I am.
Do I like who I am?
Sometimes I’m happy
with who I see-
in the mirror ,
looking back at me.
But at times
there’s an emptiness…
a feeling like I’m
an absolute mess.
Why that is?
I don’t know.
Perhaps it stems back
from long ago,
when I was a child.
But I was so loved
and wonderfully cared for.
Why this confusion?
I don’t know.
But I am slowly learning to let go…
I don’t want chaos or hostility,
just peace and tranquility.
I’m on my way …
to discovering
who I
really want
to be…
I feel…
free!

Life

DownUp +42

I know that people don’t understand what you’re going through
But I can, cause let me tell you that I’ve been there too
Every time you wake up in the morning, and wish that you didn’t
Every time you go to sleep at night wishing that you’d die in it
Damn, the pressure that they give to you to hold on your shoulders
I know it’s hard, and will only get worse as you get older
But don’t waste your time trying to figure a way outta this mess
Cause that’s what life is, unfair, hard, and full of stress
And I know that what you want is to no longer live
But listen child, you’ve got a long way to go, and so much to give
Forget the people that hurt you, put all that bullshit behind
Step up, be grown, and control what’s going on in your mind
Cause as I told you, there is no way outta this mess
So might as well sit down, take it in, and consider yourself blessed

The words of I, A Poet

DownUp +8

The words of I, A Poet

The time is so slow
Yes, the leafs takes ages to fall
As the sweet words are said
It’s I, A poet

It’s when I get so emotional
I get those words
From my heart it shouts
So loud, to be wrote

It’s too beautiful to be wrote
So sweet to be caught
That’s the words of a true poet

As the clocks tick’s a tick
And my heart beats a beat
I say, I am a poet

The tears that my eyes make
Will be remembered
As the words of today

No sweetness on earth
Will be both
The beauty of it words
And the effect it does

As I write those words
My heart will be a good listener of yours
And heal the pain that once was in your words

As much as emotional it gets
It’s never too late
For me to take away the pain
Perhaps, I will enjoy the pain

No, I am not insane
My words indeed, overcomes my brain
It drew all the smiles on my face.

As little as nothing

DownUp +5

Nothing is everything.
when you say your doing nothing you are always doing something.
If you are standing in your kitchen talking on your phone
and somebody asks you what you are doing, and you say nothing.
You are lying, your always doing something,
for instance, standing, breathing, living, talking, seeing, hearing, stepping, being yourself.
