Loving Me

DownUp 0

Do you love what you see
in the mirror?
let’s face it
we are likely to have some
form of body hangs-up
whether being our hips and tights
are too big or we can’t
seem to gain weight
no matter how much we eat
(hey!it happens!)
it’s one thing to whine about it
and quiet another to
trully hate yoursel for it
with the constant bombardment
of the media
about having perfect body
porportion ought to be
it’s great to motivate yourself
to go to constant workouts
and watch your diet
dieting for an up coming events
are such a norm these days
we barely raised an eye brows anymore
some might even go to the extend
of believing they are ugly
and refuse to accept of who they are
this disorder is not your ordinary
“I feel fat” laments
as goes beyond that
some even go as far
believing themselves
to be hideous monster
and start developing
anti-social behaviour.

Banish False Belief

DownUp 0

Belief are changeable
and it’s trully depends
on your perspective
if you change your belief
you change the way you feel
choose to tell yourself
a belief that is nurturing
and supportive create
a happy fulfilling life for yourself
you must acknowledge
your ownself worth and belief
in your strenght and abilities
over come your inferiority
by taking positive steps
in being better
set goals for yourself
feeling better and more confident
try to be greatful and content
with what you have
once you feel greatful
with what you have
you find yourself not wanting
what others have
and resenting them for it.

Love The Sun

DownUp +4

Whether we hate it or worship it
there’s no denying that the sun
has been a life source
since the beginning of time
and always will be
without the sun
plants wither and die
human and animals cannot survive
on this planet without the sun
of course,can caused
damage to the skin
there’s a reason people
riligiously slap on sunscreen
the parennial quest for youth
and the beauty industry
is forever hammering
with some perception
that being fair is beautiful
and sun exposure means
unattractive tanned skin
not realising the sunlight
elevates the mood
on a gloomy rainy day
to when the sun is shining
and the birds are chirping
and you can see
or rather feel the difference
so,love and dont shy away
from the sun
and you will be all
the better of it.

Life Is A Gift

DownUp 0

Back to the days when i felt
As though there was a hole inside me
That needed to be filled
I’d feel alone
I constantly wanted to be some better
Version of myself and always felt
There was something wrong with me
There’s so much pressure
On people to succeed and
To listen to what they have to say
I spend far too much
Time and energy
Keeping my head down and
Never made a fuss
All the time wanted others had
Simply because i didn’t
They all had it so much easier and
Then i realised my future was up to me
To shout about the fact
That i’m getting to grow old
More than anything
It’s the understanding
That life is a gift
Everyday of it instead to constract
Some dream of happiness
I was so afraid to fall
I was so afraid of rejection
All the time looking for love
Not anymore
my kids Knocked that out of me
As they hold me by the hand
The simple love they made me feel
Making each day joyful and meaningful
Even one small way.

The Road Of Life

DownUp +2

I lay in bed reflecting on my life
So far and what i had learnt
The mistakes,i’d made
And the choices i’d taken
Life is too short for pity
Get busy living or get dying
What other people think of you
Is none of your business
They included practical advice
Some frivolous but was all
The result of the (sometimes painful)
Truth,i’d learnt from
The mistakes i’d made
Why this lesson
Seems to strike a chord
I think perhaps because
A lot of us hit bumps
On the road of life
We made mistakes
We worry that our live’s aren’t perfect
That were not doing
What we should be
We look at other people
And feel we’ve failed in some way
Yet,the truth is OK
To have a messy life
And get things wrong
It’s OK tO get something and fail
And we shouldn’t be afraid
Of not being perfect
Or fair the failure
Because it’s the fact that
We hit bumps on the road of life.

Running Back And Fort

DownUp 0

Here i am
at the end of the long hard day
seventeen hours running back and fort
trying to please everyone
each thinking they’re the only one
do have that
how much longer
is this going to take
sometimes i just want to scream
oh!for goodness sake
why dont you all just take a hike
go for a long walk
off for a short pier
let someone else listen
to hear all your tears
it amazes me how some
make it through the day
so,here i am
with some peace and quiet
wondering why i’m such a fool
doing it all again
in a few short hours
how i long to be one the sitting there
impervious to all but me
but thats not my life
it is what it is
as i sit here enjoying the quiet moments
draining them of the life
for all they’re worth
i thank the good lord above
i have them to live
to get me through
the back and fort.

Tested By Life

DownUp +5

In a nutshell
im continually tested by life
time flies and growing
older just happens but
getting wiser is something else
haven’t you been provoked
at some point in your life?
tested by life
i’ve been disappointed
i’ve love and lost
i’ve had dreams die
i’ve wasted opportunities
and acted irresponsibly
i’ve found it’s hard to forgive
others,specially my self
though bruised i’m not bitter
i’ve had nightmares
but the ghost
of my regret don’t haunt me
now with focused identity and expanding
tested by life
i’ve come to realize
that crisis is an initiation
into fullness of myself.
