POETRY #14 - INTERNAL BATTLES!!!!!!!

INTERNAL BATTLES!!!!!!!

It’s always intriguing as to how your mind can work at times
You can hate something at one point and then love it at another
It makes you wonder why things are not always definite
And why outcomes change from what you envisioned
It’s even harder when you get no help from your heart as well
Because I’ve always said emotions is a hell of a thing
You can have a predetermined solution about a problem
And then that problem shows its face and your entire thought process switches
It has dawned upon me that your heart and mind control your life
Life is unpredictable and emotions cloud judgments at time
But how do we control our actions and our thought process
That’s still a task I know for me personally I’ve yet to conquer
There are people and things in my life that I love and miss
And for whatever reason, I wish I could turn back the hands of time
I say things and they say things that don’t make the situation any better
But for some reason when I’m around them, I wish it was all good
Some may say, don’t be prideful because valuable time is wasting
And at times even though you know, you wait instead of act
Reconciliation can play a number on your heart and mind
Because when each opportunity to do so is gone, you pray for more time
Internal battles of the soul can pull on your deepest heart string
Because what is lost can never be replaced
And it makes you yearn for so much more
That in the end, it leaves you hopeful for that day of warm embrace

POETRY #13 - HARD WORK!!!!!!!

HARD WORK!!!!!!!

Hard work motivates me to do the best that I can despite the circumstance or the situation
It enables me to envision the end in sight and block out the tedious task at hand
Hard work has made me the person I am today which is determined and focused
It has broken me to pieces but at the same time molded me into a stronger human being
Hard work will and does get the best of you and me at times but such is life
It’s not designed to be easy but it sure as hell is designed to get a desired result
Hard work can make you quit, it can make you cry, it has made me hurt
But I guarantee you that after putting in hard work, it can make you smile
Have you ever wanted something so bad and you worked so hard just to try and get it
And you grind, and you hustle and when you achieve that goal, you feel so happy
Just a breath of fresh air just to know that all your efforts were well worth it
That all the hard work you did, paid off in the most bounteous of ways
I think everybody and anybody can do hard work, I really do
But I also know that, not everybody and anyone can muster enough strength to achieve it
If you’re a hard worker, embrace your journey and take this time out to reward yourself
Because more than often you’re working hard at making yourself and society a better place
