In the things that make us
So special that tears smile
Flying Spirits of pure adrenaline
Natural exhilarations glowing
Within affirmative thinking
We are the masters
Of our own emotions

Creative puzzles unwinding
Your minds potential
The brilliant horizons
A monumental transude
Of electrostatic potency
Flows from your inner fire

In a road so remotely isolated
That the darkness is all consuming
Do not fear the unknown
Bring out the core of your being
To enlighten the negativity
In the miracle of your purpose

The blossom you have to offer
Will always be flawed  
For the hazards of living life
Will leave it marks
Always keep in mind
True masterpieces
Are never perfect

Thought: In the doubts and jealousies of others, we will never succeed. In the miracle of life’s magic potential, no human being should stop us from our dreams. In the reflections that we see in ourselves, we must motivate on and not retreat into oblivion. Remember that most people who succeeded have failed time and again, but somehow they keep going. In the blessings of this poet, whose abrasions are scarred in life, I wish you a perfect journey.
