Everyone has had moments when they have felt alone and uncertain about their future. I wrote this poem when I was at a similiar crossroad in my life. Believe in yourself, find something you are passionate about, and let go of the past and plan for your future. Most of all surround yourself with people who are achievers this will motivate you. Love means many things. It could mean the Love of God,but whatever it means to you let it give you the strength you need to become whoever it is you want to be. If you dream it, and believe it, you CAN make it happen.

Let Love Set You Free

Now is the time to start believing
there’s a reason for what you’re going through.
Don’t go on vacation from what you’re feeling
Let yourself know what’s inside of you.
Do you know your eyes are a mirror.
They reflect the truth of the real youA
And don’t you know they show what’s in you.
They project the love that’s guiding you.

Keep on living… don’t stop.
Keep on feeling… don’t stop.
You’re just about to happen
You’re almost ready to be
I can feel it stirring in you
Let love set you free

I know it’s hard to continue when you need rest
So you hide behind a mask of humor
Keep them laughing and they’ll never guess
That you’re worried by your unknown future
And what will you do with what your feeling
Haven’t you paid all of your dues
You ache and you feel like quitting
You can’t seem to shake the inside blues.

Keep on living… don’t stop.
Keep on feeling… don’t stop.
You’re just about to happen
You’re almost ready to be
I can feel it stirring in you
Let love set you free

When you’ve had your own realization
And accept that this all has to be
Then you’ll know love without reservation
The inside blues will leave and you’ll be free.
With you I share this information
Accepting love is all that we need
To love is the purest emotion
We are one and as one we are freed

Keep on living… don’t stop
Keep on feeling… don’t stop
You’re just about to happen
You’re almost ready to be
I can feel it stirring in you
Let love set you free.

Great minds?

We all carry lies,
emotional walls high,
misguided deceptions,
our own perceptions,
in all manners, all forms.
We patent our own agendas,
create our own illusions,
to show the outside.
Our barricades keep us untouched,
unseen, hidden,
so alone ... so apart..
You say,
“I want to know someone ...
... someone I don't have to lie to”
There's no need to lie,
no need to hide.
Crash those walls,
wave your flags,
the colors you've hidden,
so well ...
Scream who you are,
what you have been,
and all you will be ...
Look in my eyes,
drop that disguise,
Your camouflaged needs,
no longer exist.
I see through you.
Your flaws radiate.
Your silenced fears,
scream in my ears.
Your insecurities,
your cracked perfections
crystal clear, as an uncut diamond.
All these things I see,
with such clarity.
And you,
flawed and cracked,
are a vision far more
beautiful to me ...
far more real ...
... than illusions of you ...
