Out of the darkness comes the light
Each day is a struggle of life
The trials of the world weigh you down
Life comes fast…like intersections choke full of traffic
No direction…no director; just darkness
Out of the darkness comes the light
Find your direction, become the director
Act, make it happen
Open your eyes, it doesn’t have to be dark all the time

Solitude
Solitude rhymes with gratitude
And really is not the end of the world
Most people assume
The hustle and bustle of life
Makes the gratitude for solitude profound
In the life of those who can allow
Solitude to influence their attitude
And enjoy the energy and flow
Solitude in life can help you grow
Tomorrow
Tomorrow is not promised
But the promise of tomorrow leads the way
To ensure every effort today
Is made without delay
Waiting for tomorrow
Shortchanges things you can get done in the present moment
Wasting opportunity and precious time
To find the pot of gold you deserve
Start using your time today
To find your path to a better tomorrow

What did I see?
When I looked over the horizon
And tried to see my future
The future said everything will go well
You just need to find you way
Understand the pursuit of happiness
And begin your journey today
Don’t waste your time
Running around without a sense of direction
Chose your path
Live your life
And walk into the future
Strength is not in the numbers
But in how you control the flow
The life patterns you choose
And the pace that you grow
Allow the strength to manifest daily
And mitigate the weakness
To eliminate potential turmoil
To get you where you belong
Stop chasing outward things
And take advantage of the strength within

The fallacy of today is tomorrow will be a better day
Regardless of what the hope will be
There are things we will not see
The motivation of circumstance
Will keep all searching for their chance
Improving daily
But what chances should be taken?

“The poet is a liar who always speaks the truth”.
(Jean Cocteau)
The Humble Approach
Humility brings life reassessment
Which path to choose?
Can it really work as planned?
A humble nature provides the path
Seek the truth by living the truth
The rewards you seek will come
Strive to find the path that fits
And happiness will be your reward
My how the time flies
When you look back and wonder
How did we get here?
When did that happen?
The promise that was promised
Had diminished over time
And left the wonder of why
And can the path be adjusted
To fulfill the destiny of the wonder
That was first wondered by me
Really?
Black Lives Matter you say
Is that real or just a cliché?
Cannot believe we have to scream this everyday
Just to be heard, seen, and protected
From the brutal society trying to stamp us out
The daily body counts continue to rise
With no end in sight, we fall
Does not matter if it is a southern thing
Northern thing or western thing
Black lives continue to be extinguished
With no end in sight
So, I ask again, do Black Lives Matter?
When will you step up to make this true?
Simply saying it with no action makes it a hollow cliché
Something woke to say?
Time for action, some type of display
Marching is fine but there cannot be additional delay
Let us put more meaning to Black Lives Matter
Do it today!
