Inner teachings
Of a war torn soul
Battle scars surviving
Day to day combat

Simple existence
Trying to find answers
Of self purpose
In tempestuous times

Gentle reflections
In self contemplations
Stirring emotions
Storming in unknowns

Strange faith
That sees no partners
Within isolation
Sharing no comfort

Depress state
Of anxiety
Bruised pride
With no moral support

Individuality of faith
Of one self climbing mountains
Imprints the mind
Within meditations

Possibilities of being recognized
For your contributions
Have dissipated in failures
Yet you still seek an audience

Seeing yourself as a individual
Worth the time
That has been blessed
With a mind of unique proportions

In your own humanity
A peaceful serenity
Keeps blossoming
In a turbulent world

The power to change things
Lies not only in you
But the people you effect
Who in turn see the mirror
Of their reflective purpose

Thought: The greatest success lies not in what you can do but what you can inspire others to do.
