inspire

Maybe it will, maybe it won't

I want to control my mind, so I need never feel blind

put my emotions in a box, and keep them under lock and key

Let them out when I'm ready, one at a time nice and steady.

 

I've spent to much time on what might of been

that sure to be a sin,

There's no way back that's for sure

My mind should be set at what's at my door

 

thoughts and feeling so hard to control

Especially your passion and your soul

Don't stand in the way of a band new day,

just let it unfold I'm sure to find that pot of gold

 

though it's not always easy on this path I've been given

when your on your own and feeling alone

but I will take my love that is broken and put it to one side

Let love grow for someone new I might find

 

May my strengths be my mistakes and the lessons I've learnt

Let new beginnings inspire my life, because I'm sure to fine that perfect wife

I'll let it all go, for my feeling must grow

My hurt and pain are one of the same

But with out love there would be no one to blame

 

Sometimes words can't be used to describe thoughts or feelings nor emotions I find

so I'll live for the moment, I won't try to explain

There's no shame in that, it's just a fact

That not everything is black and white nor as it seems

As life twists and turns, slowly unfolds

There's so many things I won't understand

but that don't make me any less of a man

 

It's like walking through the night

you can't see where you've been till you've reach the light

So many lessons and things to learn

But none are important unless I can find happiness within my mind

 

So I'll start from within and work my way out

That's all I need to figure it out, I don't have to stand here and shout

If your hopes and dreams are down to you

then it's up to you to decide what to do

 

I'll live my life simply and know what I need

Desire and greed might help me to feed

But love is all I need to breath

An amazing poem indeed. I enjoyed it very VERY much!! The last stanza was my favorite,
"I'll live my life simply and know what I need
Desire and greed might help me to feed
But love is all I need to breath."
Without love life truly stops making sense.

Great poem and subject. When you said but, did you mean put? In line 2. The third line in paragraph 5, it say most instead of must. I really enjoyed the second half. Thank for this poem.
