Within The Storm

You feel like you don't know what you are doing,
And the social life can be quite a big influence.
Try not to get caught up in all the crazy propaganda,
Your pride will be lowered if you soak in all that negative banter.

Just take it easy & don't travel down the road of life so fast,
There are certain milestones you'll come across that won't last.
No need to worry though, it will turn out just fine,
Remember, everything is not perfect as you go down the line.

Keep that head held HIGH young, beautiful soldier,
The strenuous battle you've fought will diminish as you grow older.
You are recognized for the accomplishments you have earned,
Be sure to smile within the storm as you wait for the sun to return.

Reminiscing

It's been a long time & we've went our separate ways,

Your loving stays in my mind though, it left me in such a daze.

Where did you go? I'm trying to look all around,

But I can't seem to get to you, you're nowhere to be found. 

Bring me back to the love & pleasure that kept me going,

The kind that motivated me to continue growing.

"Don't stop, you're on the right track!"

I could hear you saying that, like it's a known fact.

Maybe soon, not so far from now, I can feel you again,

Right here next to me, showing me that your loving will never end. 

That's just a thought I wanted to let you in on,

There could be more, only if you choose to strengthen this old bond.

Overcoming The Crazy

Stuck in this wondering mind with my thoughts,

Looking back at the crazy battles that I have fought. 

It has been a rough ride down this tarnished road,

I have become a warrior who has earned her stripes of gold. 

It was never easy to go through all that I've experienced,

Yet it's taught me that I must always be prepared for all events mysterious. 

Now, I'm able to see what didn't fit into this "Life" puzzle of mine,

And put matters of great importance on the front line. 

Crazy to think, but we must observe the bad to reach the amazing days,

At the end of my battles, I'm hoping to be greeted with so much praise. 

I will remind myself to stay focused throughout this fight,

Then I can reach the finish line with so much delight.

The Endeavor

I never believed I would fall into this position,

Where I feel like there is no one around me who will listen. 

I'm broken down yet they can't see the emotions that are trapped in my mind,

Trying to escape but it seems like it's going to take some time.

I can only hope that one day everything will fall back into line,

Instead of curving around & becoming intertwined. 

It's almost like a bad dream I cannot wake up from,

Until I open my eyes & realize the damage has already been done. 

There is no time to run away & hide from the mistakes I've made,

There must be new paths that I need to create. 

It won't be simple but I must keep my head held high,

And always remind myself, it's the best that I have tried.

Down This Road

Walking down this torn & rocky road in such disbelief,

"Where am I supposed to go? How would I be able to proceed?"

It hasn't been the easiest path that I have travelled down,

I must see how I can break out of this unsettled cycle without uttering a sound. 

It isn't easy, I know I still have a long way to go,

But I won't say I have regrets because that only shows I haven't grown. 

There were lessons learned & there is plenty more to realize,

I think you would most definitely agree, if you were by my side. 

Now the time has come where I must learn how to stay humble,

I need to remain strong physically & mentally inside this concrete jungle.

One day though, as I keep these thoughts in my mind,

I will see a clearer picture with all of my goals fully aligned.
