You are worth the effortYou will always be worth the effort
he saysto my aching heartand haunted mind as I stareblankly, devoid of emotion or awareness
As I feel the shame of my nasty habits hanging by my flesh
A crescent moon in the sky appears
She may not be the hope in a God far away
Or the expectation of a God yet to come
HAPPINESS
Happiness
is clearly
programmed
to live in you,
but you must
absolutely
leave room in
your heart
and head for
it to bring you
what it must
bring you.
You are the greatest secret
kept from yourself.
It is in hiding your Light
that you become lost.
It is in resisting the moment,
**Oh yes, much faith is needed
In times such as these
falling down on my bended knees
As I take it day by day
The sun rises, the stars are shining bright
entering into the early days until the late nights
...(I needa) Free my Mind, Find Some Time, (And) Take a Breath of Fresh Air, (A Space) Away from this Place, (And) Nothing to Follow Me There.
She wakes up every morning
To a brand new day.
She is aware of every warning,
Yet she still has a smiling face.
Here peers all around her
See the worst through the best,
But she deters
Focus Misdirected
They won’t like me
they don’t care
they look upon my person
and see nothing
as if I am not there.
The fear of rejection
Change is what scares me the most.
But being afraid of something that is constant,
Worrying over the what-ifs, and the “what’s next?”
Will only create a scarier effect.
So I travelled exactly 7,403 miles from home.
Fear is a tool unlike any other,
Dangerous and lively like fire,
A double-edged sword, a friend and a foe;
Mysterious and fearsome to think about, to feel,
The thoughts entrancing the mind, able to eradicate
It comes in waves
It stays for days
the fear that drives,
the tears that dive
Still, Move Forward.
Even though you’re scared, fight
Even though you’re worried, try
My challenge was to climb three vertical beams
that hang off of each other. No help from my team.
Swaying back and forth, I used small pegs
always follow your ambitions even if you don't know where they may lead. chase your goals and grasp them in your hand like a rope that's pulling you into the life that you want.
The clock is ticking
And time keeps slipping away
Get your business completed
That should be the goal for today
Your hands should not be idle
Keep yourself occupied
Take back your lost momentum
Enlighten, encourage and empower
Let those words be uplifting
As you embark on your next adventure
Look for a deeper meaning
You have it all within
Just reach for the sky
Be the inspiration
As you read along
Some stories may have a subplot
There may be a connection of some sort
For others to figure out
This may twist the reader's mind
And bring about a juxtaposition
Dreams and happenings
Success is there
Reach for the sky
Be willing to work for it
Set your sights high
Nothing is easy
Go through that maze
Let the battle challenge you
In order for you to see brighter days
Good thoughts and words
Only get you so far
Take action immediately
So you can be that star
The mind is an essential tool
Utilize it accordingly
Believe that you can
Execute your plan efficiently
Make those adjustments
To improve your skill
Reach for the sky
Have that strong will
Get back on track
Be bright as the sun
You have the power
Strive to be number one
We search with care
But, sometimes there is lots of confusion
Darkness rears its ugly head
Along with bitter frustration
We cannot give up hope
We need to move towards the light
The sunshine will appear
You shine in the abyss,
A beckoning brightness beaming
Forth with advice and encouragement.
You pull me aside after class
And softly, subtly, smilingly
Take everything to heart
Continue to do your best
Always be the one who forges ahead
Embark on your success
Go for that gold
It is all in your mind
Lift your head upward
Just keep everything in line
Keep walking that mile
And never look back
Find the motivation
To get back on track

But, you can see the sun once again

Enlighten, uplift, and empower
That is the kindred spirit
Every minute and hour
Build that momentum
Have a positive attitude
Continue to be persistent
Always show your gratitude
Make your presence felt
The children need you
Without your guidance
They would be clueless as to what to do
Be their voice
When they cannot speak
Always show them that you care
I am young and I have an interest.
You said, that’s exciting!
I am young and I say, I still have an interest.
You said, research it.
I am young, I researched it and I still have an interest.
The words are there
But, they only mean so much
They do not say how we feel
Nor, do they keep us in touch
Moments will go away
The scenery then drifts apart
All that will remain
Moments are forever fleeting
You are not always going to have time
Get those important things done now
Things change at the blink of an eye

The journey is never easy
Darkness may rear its ugly head
Do not suffer in silence
Let your voice be heard
Speak your message
Just be the one to spread the word
When a person is alone
Ambiguity may appear
Rise above the mountainside
Tiny little dandelion
Time for it to grow
A million dreams launch into the air
With just a single blow
A gentle breeze starts to stir
In the leaves of the family nearby
When I was a little girl
I would obsess over the horses.
I decided to dance instead,
But they never left my mind.
As the years went on I felt like I was different from the rest.

And exercise your mind
Fill your world with knowledge
Create your own sunshine
Be willing to learn more
Continue to get ahead
Do not waste precious time
Go for that gold instead
Does anyone care what goes on in the world?
With people that hunger and need much care?
They have bloated stomachs and legs all curled,
All shriveled, yet young, and entirely bare.
I cry when I try
Because I'm known to fail
I cry because I won the battle
I cry because I lost the war
I cry because I left the one who loved me first
I left because I thought loving was to learn to hate
For my daughter:
I wish only the greatest of aspirations so that when somebody says “No!”
She will say “Yes!”
She raises her hand in victory
For being an outstanding student
Always exercising her mind
And making valuable usage of her time
Willing to learn everything
As she embarks on her journey
Tough love is on display
Because, the child has been led astray
Following the wrong crowd
And sadly, wasting her life away
Both parents are in a state of worry
They just want their child back
May not be the first one to coin this notion
Just remember this when you’re putting on lotion
If someone changes the course putting your life out of motion
Pick them up and throw them in the ocean
Towering stadium lights
blinded like me nothing else before it.
They illuminated
the best things about me.
The fire that
burned
so deeply in my soul I was sure
it would be eternal.
Girl, what a masterpiece you are
You are sweet as can be
Beautiful and charming
Stunning, sassy, and classy
You are a human work of art
Of a loving nature
An effervescent personality
So gentle and pure
Take her in your arms
And never let her go
Cherish everything
Just go with the flow
There will be rough patches
Adjust those sails
Continue along the journey
So you both can prevail
The garrulous little girl
Rambles her mouth at will
Very expressive in her speeches
Touching every heart it reaches
She is already advanced in her knowledge
She should be a stellar student in college
The student who prepares
Is on a mission to succeed
They are focused on their studies
They take the time to thoroughly read
Always wanting to do their best
Climbing every mountain and shouting out loud
Sometimes I wish to talk to the version of me in the past
The weak woman without purpose I had been
A little candlelight burning at the command of others
Be a warrior
Before you give up, first, reach for the star
You're already a survivor
You know that you've gone this far
There are mountains to climb
There are rivers to cross
Do not waste your mind
Never stop learning
Always educate yourself
Continue progressing
When you open your mind
You fill your world with knowledge
Be the one to aspire
Apply yourself better
You can make the grade
Put more focus on your studies
There is more knowledge for you to gain
Do not waste your time
And be a fool
Open those books
Edify yourself and be cool
There's no competition when I'm around,
because everyone gets nervous with many crying sounds!
The competitors get terrified when I am near.
When I win, the others give a crestfallen tear.
I don't know what I don't know.That is why I never asked questions. All I ever wanted to do is "go with the flow",But then all at once I learned. About you and him,And you and that night,About you and everything I don't agree with.That day felt li
Never leave a stone unturned,
is something she believes in.
To do so means a missed opportunity, something she can’t afford.
She believes in herself.
Time will run out
You may never have another chance again
Just get at it
Make great usage of the opportunity at hand
This is your moment
You can be great
But, you have to get started somewhere
I catch my 10 year old little brother staring down the weighing scale
I guess you can say
That’s he’s a bit...
Broader
Beefier
Fluffier
Have a will to learn
And be your best
Possess a can do attitude
Always show your gratitude
Be at the top of your class
Continue to shine
Shout it out loud
Dear Me,
You are strong,
You are beautiful,
You are capable,
You are smart,
You will get through this.
Nobody can control you,
Tell your woman everything
Make her feel like she matters
Communication is vital
Without it, your world would be shattered
Build your foundation with her
Just always be there
Arise
Arise, shine!Shine like the sunGlow like the moonSparkle like a starCos that’s what you are
Acquire more knowledge
Continue to get ahead
Apply yourself a great deal
Brighten your world instead
Never stop improving
Ameliorate your vocabulary
Learning is a lifelong experience
It takes me back to when I was young,
Bold.
Fearless, and told to
“Rub some dirt in it,”
Before being fit into a mold
And told
That this is what life is.
Life is what you make it, so live it to the greatest
Everybody out here, we all tryin to make it
It’s not about you, there is no “I” in team
You’ve got to strive to be the best and live your biggest dream
Faith?
Wht's that supposed to be?
Believing in the path she's on she thought
Even as all outside of me falls
It's maintaining my sight
Knowing what I believe I create in my life
We are getting pulled on strings
we wish one day to grow our wings.
One day we would like to see
what we are made to be.
As for now be proud,
speak your thoughts out loud.
I met a boy
He saw purple and red stripes
He told me a story
About how his fist
Was always kissing bricks
And as romantic as it was
He had to quit
So instead
He spread a story about himself
In magenta, black and elf felt green
A
I woke with a start, lost and afraid.
I don't know where I am yet another day.
I walk, walk, walk and find no one.
I feel today, my days are done.
This lonely, foresaken place has no hope.
Wants and needs
Aimless seeds
Planted, but only
One would grow.
Only
One would bloom.
The distance,
The isolation,
The earthly man
On the moon.
Coded in the lights
Like Moriss
She is a wife, a treasure that should be beloved!
From the ground, she walks on to the air she breathes above
She is a mother, a precious gift!
Without her, life would not exist
Always encourage the students
To do their very best
Read and study your books
And rise up to the test
Get that piece of paper
And make your parents proud
Go forward and conquer
I met an important person who turned my life around,please listen to this amazing discovery I have found. He has educated me in the truth I needed to know,Daily I am guided beside the paths I ought to go.No matter the circumstances for me He find
When it seems failure has burned off all my leaves,
When disappointment has razed my roots to nigh oblivion,
And I am smoldering in my own regret,
I will not be buried.
I may sink beneath the Earth,
The other day, I saw a dead tree,It’s branches broken and its roots free.It had fallen down in a storm the previous night,Knocked over by the wind and all its might.
I am beautiful
I am empowered
I am worthy
I am allowed
I am unstopable
I am smart
I am witty
I have heart
I am a daughter
I am a friend
I am a sister
It was the spring of 1994 and my mother went for her last ultrasound that showed up normal just as it did each time she went, but in reality everything was not as it appeared on the ultrasounds.
To be a bastard is to be fatherless
To be a bastard is to have a father in Heaven
To be a bastard is to be without the Father in Heaven
Staring at the world, like the glass is half full
Maybe one day we will all be less despitful.
People judge each other cuz of the way they look,
Not seeing that reality was raised in the hook.
Optimism
Stay strong and fight through
Everythings gonna get better for you.
Look at life a different way,
Because in all actuality, no one has a bad day.
Life is all about doing things,
Blood is shed by the hands of men,
Deep scarlet runs through the streets.
When did this form of genocide began?
With blood, human hands are streaked.
It seems as if everyone has lost touch
I rarely watch the news because of the content it shows,
it's ironic because we say "stop the violence" but constantly it grows,
The Awesomeness in Me is why I get up out of bed.
Even though, everyday, I would rather not.
The Awesomeness in Me is why I still attempt to look nice everyday
Words flow in and out as I speak of what I know.
Quotes and lyrics emerge from my light lips.
I sing stories of dreams and nightmares.
My stomach rumbles and does flips.
I'm determined to break free.
No, I am afraid you’re wrong.
I am words
And lyrics
I am “tell me that I am everything you need.”
No, I am not silence.
I am tears and laughs
All of our years we work and try to see,
The girl or boy we are supposed to be.
We go through school being judged and bullied,
Just to turn around and judge and bully.
We are called to act with love and kindness,
Money is such an issue
So much so I may need a tissue
As I try to make good grades and pass my classes
I have to worry about the assets that I can grab at
He pushes you
You cry
He stab you
You die
It could have end at the push
If you knew how to punch
Laugh at the Devil
And dance in the pain
Sing through the struggle
And breathe in the rain
Fret about nothing
Try not to forget
That life will be better
If you just don't fret.
Go your own way,
Forget their objection.
They just want
To storm on your vision.
I shake his hands,
Yet my toes are beneath where he stands.
He’s been stomping my toes for hours,
Pacing on them as he explains why his belief, should be ours.
Any longer and my toenails will fall off,
Fat. Ugly. Emo. Gay
we've all heard what the haters say.
they act so kind right to our face.
but then they talk crap once we're replaced
by yet another hater (who hasn't really seen)
She spoke loud and talks with a voice that unheard of
she spoke loud and theres no face revealed
CUT THE RESTRAINTS THAT HAVE HELD YOU BACK
SHUT THE DOOR TO ALL THE NEGATIVE SMACK
BUILD THE BLOCKS OF CONFIDENCE INSIDE YOU
SHILED THE PAST AND PUT OLD THOUGHTS BEHIND YOU
A girl is hiding, hiding behind that curtain
That curtain right there, I know I am certain
That is her, that girl hiding behind that curtain
She is shy and uncertain and bullied eveyday
there is something wrong in a world where we pour ourselves out to
strangers on the internet
but our best friends dont know our torment
and there is something wrong in a world where beauty is only skin deep
She takes her seat before the glass.
The reflection she sees so far from what she feels.
“Why do we show the world a mask?”
She pondered.
you thought this time
it would go by the book again
it almost always does
you know the one
it's my own edition
maybe
but its always the same story
or it was supposed to be
The race we run roils with rigor
Journeying to a peak of revival
Tumbling down a tube of trauma
Crash into the valley
Climbing back out
Be the Change.
Stop the bullying.
Instead of tearing them down bulid them up.
Or say nothing at all.
Scared in a world with a variety of people, the rejects, the nerds and quiet people .
With the people who belong on stages and are natural leaders , those who belong at the steaple.
Calm as a summer's meadow.
Warm and full of light.
Bright as a yellow sun.
One by one the flowers remind me
of how beautiful you are.
Stars and rainbows don't compare.
Beauty everywhere.
Here I sitand wonder why.Why am I here?Is it just to die?Or is there a reasonFor this crazy world?A reason to be hereto spin and to twirl?
Sometimes, enough is enough
you tap out before the going actually gets tough
nevertheless, no one else is in your position except you
battling and fightng to get through
All I see is Gold in the beam,
We step to drive, to where we lead,
Believe me, about this beam, we have our ups
So we don’t drown
Although I have not lived a hard-knock life I have been through some struggles
Of not knowing who I am or what I want
Constantly and repeatedly putting myself in a bubble
My lack of honesty would cause me so much pain
Seeing with the eyes is only a sense,
Seeing with the heart is a gift,
Seeing with the soul is an annointing.
When you walk, however,
You walk by faith,
Not by sight.
You're shattered. You're broken.
Not thinkin' anyone knows.
You trudge on, resent all, for the pain from the stones they've thrown.
But there's this secret I'm letting out. You didn't know I was here all throughout:
Don't hold back.
Show them what you're made of.
Make them regret looking over you.
Let them hate they didn't give you a chance.
Don't focus too much on them,
You go out there and you fly
You're tired of people making you feel small.
youre tired of feeling like you'll never amount to anything.
But let me tell you, one day you WILL fly.
A patient heart is well rewarded in time It understands the clock’s tick is a sign Each stroke a step to something so divine There are occasions we don’t fully understand A heart will break so it can learn to mend When life is truly ready, the go
I am more than just/ a face in the crowd/ I have a voice / and I want to be heard / Beyond the reaches of Northern New Jersey / the world in which I live / I want all to know / that I am not just an average Joe / I am Joseph Conciatori / a poet,
He is my strength and salvation,
Of whom shall I be afriad,
With his power I fear no evil,
Living my life courageous and stong,
Each night I give my life to Him as I pray,
It's time to focus Lehne.
Get in the racing mindset.
Ports one foot in, and down.
I sit and strap in as fast as I can
Port oars across.
Bow take a stroke.
Weigh enough.
Focus
The darkness descends.
Hello, my friend.
Hisssssss.
Remember the pain, remember the lies,
Remember the feelings you disguise.
Terrifying cold, the biting steel
Running red so you can feel.
"OMG you too Ms. Imani?You see I... I thought I was the only"Thats what this young girl said to meas she glared at meno longer feeling lonely.
When life gets difficult,
And your cup over flows,
Things go haywire,
Objects explode,
Theres no air,
No air,
No air you cant breathe,
Your brain cant conceive,
Wrong,
Wrong,
If you are on this Earth,
you are free.
You.
Yourself,
with your own
thoughts,
beliefs,
loves,
When people and life give you grief
there is some advice you always receive:
“Take it with a grain of salt,” they say.
It’s such a cliché.
And what they don’t tell you
At some point or another, we all will want to quit.Everbody's been there. Go ahead and admit.But at some point in time, we will see how good life can get.
I am the one who everyone calls short
I am the one who often needs support
I am the black ballet who dreams
My dreams are real
My hopes are precious
My hard work is golden
You only write once
Well I think that's a lie
For writing is eternal
It will never say goodbye
My life has been a mess
Lots of stress
I'm almost done with high school
And that's my final test
Founded by people who want us to succeed,
Surrounded by people who do not believe,
Hurt inside because of depression,
No emotion or impression,
Hurting others with a fist,
Bruising at no risk,
Walking through the halls you see them everywhere, The mean girl making others feel invisible. But where, where are the teachers? The ones who should being protecting us. The ones that are supposidly our safe haven. The warmth in the sun.
Maybe She Would Be Alive Today. If I Spoke Up And Said What I Needed To Say. If I Thought Differently and Choose A Different Path. Crazy Thing Is I Didn’t Think She Would Last.
So apparentlyPeople don't careHow what they sayEffects others

A seed is cast into the wind,
And the process of a destined love begins.
Though it may encounter much vexation,
And endure both trial and tribulation,
A lucky few in the faithful spot land,
I believe the students studying at our school do not get enough props.
We bust our arse to maintain high grades to get scholarships and TOPS.
Yet I feel like the only thing we get is clubs that require us to do community service.
You see im not much into historythe dictionarybut I know what the words we say mean,the words we say take affectrecalect, no respect,Like tomorrow , sorrow,we have so many things to see
Kids walking down the hallway
with they're heads hanging down.
Because they just got teased,
about they're hair, clothes, or laugh.
Kids just walking with agony,
wondering when this is going to stop.
Kids walking down the hallway

It's a rollercoaster, it's a rat race.
To where? you say.
Our lives entangled in the rapid pace,
sempiternally caught in the fray.
Watch the haughty businessman,
Maybe,The whispers will overwhelmThat beautiful mind of yoursThey'll pull, rip to shredsThese worries in your headInsecurities you didn't knowPlagued you.So convinced that they know
I am running the most arduous part of the race-the last half-mile.
It is now when I’m counting my breaths, struggling to find air inside my lungs.
It’s now when I ache for the finish line to be beneath my pounding feet.
From as far
well as far as I can remember
From the cold fronts of December
to the hot summers of July in everything
I've done it was to prove that I could do
anything as long as try,
-She walked along the darkness of it all. That was it. The darkness, it seemed like she was blind walking without seeing anything around her. The Abyss.
Courage, the pride of a lion. The heart of a marine. Something everyone strives to acheive, but many fail. Is courage best earned when it is ignited from love, anger, or fear. The costs can be high but the reward is sweet.
I write so that you may see me
Wrapped so eagerly into this language
That can move so swift from my lips that the meaning
Brings nothing
But when you see it
Before I step on the spotlight, I dip my pointe shoes on Rossin.
Adrenaline pumps my blood and my senses change; I am not myself anymore.
Once the melody strikes, the brain doesn't think, it feels and creates something beautiful.
I do not only write for me, I write for others. Some people might be going through the same situation I am in. I write to heal, empower, and encourage. And I know if my writing does that for me, then I know it is doing that for someone else.
-You lie through your teeth
When it comes to how-are-you’s
“I’m good” or “I’m okay,”
Is what you’d instead say
-Feeling lonely day by day
Not that you weren’t alone in the first place
As the sunlight slips between my fingertipsI watch the shadows fallThey fall in lacy breaths over my skin,Making darkness and light seem so intricate
She sits there, out in front of us,
a fearful look scrawled across her face.
Her voice , that at first,
seems as though it’ll crack;
nervous, uncertain, and afraid.
Gambling is a sin, so never begin,
Money madness makes it more maniacal,
Stacks against itself the odds of real success,
It should see it’s blessed, learn to rest well,
Don’t send yourself to hell,
They bit the apple on the tree and I smoked its leaves. Yet, the sins I committed outside my body weren't enough for me. I kissed her lips and touched her skin. I cut my flesh for my dead spirit within.
We the invisible
While unforgettable it is easy to forget we are there
The misfits the world never bothered what to do with
Forgetting our existence while counting us statistics
Misplaced we traverse unknown plains
Is it the beginning,
where beginners dream of winning
or is it the end,
where dreamers decide on quitting?
As the snow falls I feel the memories fade
We're given a slate of time that can't be erased
We're lulled-
Into the cadence of life and the thought of love Herself.
As the ice forms on the window pane
Where do you see the sun rise in a sea of sinking sand-
When the hand of God is closed and death is so close to being a demand?
It's warmth beats down, taking its prize
Shouldn't it not be so much of a surprise
Is it so hard to believe,
For what you cannot see nor hear
Is it so hard to believe
That you can be touched by a spirit that is not their
Is it so hard to believe If you close your eyes
Nobody knows and nobody understands sometimes the way you feel.
Sometimes it feels like you can't talk to anybody.
You don't want the pity but answers and a hand to reach and pull you out of the deep muck you got yourself in..
To live for just anything is simply too vast!
A heart needs direction.
A heart is a mast,
Life is a sailing ship, and
Direction - the wind
That gives a push to the mast
And begs a life to begin.
Lost in an empty space
craving something to replace
the emptiness.
I was told there was one,
they called it the son
and the light.
I looked towards the sky,
the sun blaze in my eye,
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me
God’s love will never end
I will honor Him being all I can be
Courage brings light
Hope when all you see is darkness
It makes your life bright
With strength to destroy your weakness
Courage is not something easily found
You’ve got to search down deep
Tears streaming down her face.
Seems like everything is pulling her down.
Staring up at the sky,
Praying for a chance that things will get better.
Don't worry,
Give it time.
Life is a rollercoaster.
Hey there. You with the tired eyes
You are beautiful and I hope you realize
They say the sky's the limit
But the Milky Way's got your name on it
It only gets better from here
So don't fear
People have judged me all my life
But I'm me and I'm here
Nerd, ugly, snooty, stuck up
But I'm me and I'm here.
I'm not any of those things
Once you get to know me.
I'm quiet but opinionated
Take a deep breath and brace yourself. Take your steps 'til accomplishment is felt. Move ahead three steps at a time or what works best for you. Don't ever stop or miss your cue, because success doesn't move without you.
To Hold.
To Feel.
To Write.
To Draw.
To Move.
To Clench.
Mine to Own,
Yours to Hold.
God’s best tool He’s given me.
Hands.
Bandaids swirl around the sugar bowl
Brightly colored strips wearing white textures
A warm and worn comforter
Cocoa and petals inside motivation
Salt-flavored showers drain while blossoms begin stretching wide
People in life sometimes need a shine.
You don't have to a star nor even a dime.
As kid you grow, and find whats inside.
Go on little kids, show how you can shine.
Show the world and life that theres nothing to hide.
Blood spatter washed away by a fire hose,
I was only 10 years old when I first watched,
It was the middle of February and my teachers made a plot to bring our youthful ignorance to a temporary stop
