Did you write that? It is inspiring.
Yeah i wrote it.
If it can inspire then that´s a good thing.
Look at the path, you lost burdened child
See where you´ve been, what you have left behind
No more will you linger in the lessons you learn
The future is yours, the past you can burn
I looked at your closed post. Sorry if I am stalking. But I wanted to see if you wrote any thing else. Any way, I love the things you have wrote.
Can I asked you if your were abused? They sound like that come from a person who has overcome. Like when I read “The strength within” I wanted to give it to a girl I know who has been abused.
And if I could make a suggestion even though you have not asked for one. The “be all you can be” at the end moved me from feeling this wonderful encouragement, to thinking of the army. That is their slogan. Be all you can be. So maybe wording it another way. I even hate to say that to you because I feel like who am I to suggest that. So I hope it does not bother you that I made that suggestion.
Stalk all you want..
I don´t think i was abused but there was som things going on back in the day.
A lot of my work is inspired by others and how i think they feel.
I´m not that familiar with the army over there so i have no connection. I think the line is good but i can see that it can be associated with the army there and that´s not really good.
I´ll think a little about that and see if i can come up with something better.

The strength within
The strength within
Not easily found
It´s always there though
Like it´s nailed to the ground
You may hide it
You may be in the dark
All that is needed to find it
Is the smallest spark
In the end you might know
How it has helped you through
There is nobody else
Who is as strong as you
In the hallway you stand
Reaching out in the rain
Waiting for a prince
To take you away from the pain
Hold fast my dear
I can tell you what it´s like
When you start reaching within
And find what´s deep inside
Trough darkness and hurt
Nothing is too much to overcome
And when everyone around you hit the dirt
You will stand firmly on the ground
Look again if you don´t believe
See what i see
Don´t fall for the hurtful words
Be all you can be
Well you are very empathetic to be able to write like this and it is inspired by how you think someone else feels.

Thanks for the invite, Babacup.
Grim, this is so beautifully written and so inspiring. As everyone else in here, I come across so many posts in which this would be the exact “right” thing to say to someone desperately in need of some encouragement. With your permission, whenever appropriate, I’d love to share this link with people in need of your beautiful words.

Hey Dixie, we found a SNAG (sensitive new age guy) that’s all i mean by that! Nothin wrong with us gals writing poetry, but don’t you admit it IS nice to read one from a male!??? So, where’s your latest?
SNAG, hmm. What does new age mean?
I wish a lot of people knew this ^^

Can´t really get my head around that either..
Normally I hear new age being used in reference to certain religions. Neo-pagans and so on. I don’t even know what that means either. But some of them seemed like they had to do with an emphasis on self being god.
But in this context, no idea ^^

I think it means untraditional when i think about it.
Like an evolved version of the old, only better.

To quote London Tipton: “Yay me!”
Ahh. I see. ^^
Very nice, I was invited by Earthgoddess, thank you.
It’s very nice, only i can’t look past the hurtful words.
I start to rise up then the words come
and i fall down again

A real Snag in Australia is another way of saying sausage, but for sometime now, we have called the more sensitive, understanding guys - SNAG. Sensitive New Age Guys! I will have to get back to you on the term New Age. I know what it means but hard to explain, and I do want to get it right, so i shall get back to you all on this one. EGx
yeh we have a pretty funny sense o humour us Aussies. I said, “throw a snag on the barbie, mate!” so he threw a sausage at the barbie doll! hehehe
I is being really silly now, getting a bit late here and i is getting over tired!
thanks for the poetry i really realate to that and it helps me alot
clunkY

like the amtrak shakes on its rails
to grind into the station of my cortex
