Poem: Power In Thinking
It ended before it began
- my life,
I was defeated before I started
- my plan.
Everything I did, everything
- I believe I am,
Has been merely a journey through
- fading sand.
Life is like cancer,
It’s terminal.
If left unattended, it will drain you completely,
When you least anticipate, your world turns upside down.
Everything you desire remains within sight,
Achieving them seems impossible, oh not a chance?
It’s not about victory or defeat
nor faith, blessings, or belief,
But I dare to confess, a thought has crossed my mind
Could I be praying to the wrong god?
As effortlessly as oxygen enters your nostrils,
Life's foolish dreams turn into curses.
While I was wandering with my head in the clouds,
failure grinned, knowing it would be my fate.
Darkness surrounded me from all sides,
everything I touched soon decayed.
Every life I became a part of was tainted,
It wouldn't be long before I was cast aside.
It took me years, but eventually I realized
This cloud that followed me was one I had gathered.
See, this is what misery wants me to accept,
That I am worthless and that would be my fate.
I was deliberately nurturing my gloomy thoughts,
Instead of thinking wisely, knowing I'm destined for success.
I need to transform my mindset to preserve my life,
Embracing positive thinking as my joy.
I must change my thoughts, to save my life,
Positive thinking must be my delight.
The solutions lie within me, not from external sources,
My faith will guide my steps to the right paths.
Be mindful of how you determine your destiny,
Revitalize your thoughts, and a new life, shape.
