Be clear with intentions

To love and approve of yourself without question

Allows freedom of mind, without any thought congestion

Having courage in your actions and respect for mankind

Means you’ll never look back and have no axe to grind

 

Have honour in your heart, treat others with respect

Live your life with real purpose and you won’t disconnect

From your spirit within you and the values you hold dear

Never be scared, know there’s nothing to fear

 

There are knowns and unknowns, like there always has been

Your destination in life, remains a picture unseen

You may love and may lose, without rhyme, without reason

There’ll always be liars and those who commit treason

 

The truth, it can hurt; be a knife through your heart

Do not view it as the end, when it’s always the start

Be mindful of behaviour, it speaks louder than words

Be clear with intentions and you’ll always be heard

 

Have strength when you’ve been knocked, down to the floor

Ooze confidence and compassion, from each and every pore

Surround yourself in white light, be true to your soul

Know that other’s projections, shouldn’t be your own goal

There’s a whole life to unearth

I’m thinking alot about being still.  Relaxing perfectly into the moment; being held by it.  Knowing from deep inside my inner child, that I am always safe.  That there is nothing to fear, only the attainment of what is best for ourselves in the present moment.  No self judgement being made about what we’re worth, what should define us and who we intellectualise ourselves to be…

 

Wake up early, to see dawn break

Feel dew wet grass, under foot

Hear beyond all your thinking

Do not add, your own input

 

Listen to the cacophony of nature

The lack of sound, in your mind

Breathe in every ounce of self-worth

Exhaling love and being aligned

 

Feel the sun, on your shoulders

The scale of all that can be

Watch the leaves swaying rhythmically

Allow yourself to be carefree

 

Feel the vibration of humanity

Know it’s life and add your own

We’re all magnificent beings

Don’t leave it to others to be shown

 

Always smile and speak to strangers

Hold their eye, acknowledge their worth

Have courage; know you’re shiny

There’s a whole life, to unearth

Just let life unfold

Life is not busy, only thoughts make it so

We individually choose, what can flourish and grow

Sit quietly with your mind, resist any projection

Too much thinking leads only to unsafe introspection

 

Feel love in your heart; allow it to be a feeling

It is only ourselves, who create our own ceiling

Live generously of spirit, we are all one and the same

The energy that flows through you, is for everyone’s gain

 

Happiness is not dependant, on just man-made things

Accumulation of possessions, won’t give your bow any strings

Spend time with your loved ones, sharing moments in full

Know that honesty and integrity, are most powerful of all

 

Mankind often confuses what’s right and what’s wrong

Don’t make gossip and drama your own unique song

Be generous, acknowledge, other beings you might meet

Catch the eye and smile, at those you pass on the street

 

We are equally responsible, not one person’s worth more

The Universe unravels, look at everything in awe

Everyone’s story, has a right to be told

Do not judge or control; just let life unfold

When it is

When it is raining, do not let your heart cry

When it is cloudy, do not let thoughts clog up your mind

When it is windy, remain grounded

When it is sunny, do not let your ego blind you

When it is snowing, do not believe you are purer than others

When it is nightfall, do not let darkness fill your soul

When it is daybreak, do not carry yesterday’s worries

Tando

My African friend, she shows me much strength

Although she’s just four, she’s on my wavelength

Her Mother, she died, so suddenly last year

Yet she’s always smiling, from ear to ear

 

To have such purpose, from such a young age

It heals my heart, while I turn my own page

She shines so brightly and holds life so dear

She shows me in life, that there’s nothing to fear

 

There’s much we can learn, from our own inner child

It teaches us not be meek, or be mild

Her purse it is poor, but her life is so full

She’s won me over; shown me how to stand tall

 

So much time looking back, trying to fathom a reason

When instead we should be living, just season to season

The power of innocence, is so shiny and pure

It can heal your soul and your spirit it can cure

 

Her beauty shines through, her ever-present eyes

Showing me that love, is something, you cannot disguise

She’s honest, she’s genuine, she’s herself at her core

She’s an Angel in life, whom I love and adore

How?

Does anyone know how to make true love stay?

How to anchor it down, so it won’t drift away?

How can vows that were made, become meaningless words?

How can the promises behind them, now feel so absurd?

 

How do you rebuild a life, when the goal posts are moved?

When the love of your life takes leave; is removed?

How can shutters be closed without care, without thought?

A long history rewritten; in a new life you stand court

 

Feeling lost, cast adrift, in a strange distant land

In my dreams you’re still with me, still holding my hand

How do I accept a decision, that is really not mine?

Reconcile my heart, now I’m on the sideline?

 

How do I deal with the sadness, when the tears just won’t dry?

How can I feel joy in my soul, as I cry and I cry?

How do I learn how to trust and live life without care?

How do I know I’ll be happy, when all I feel is despair?

 

How can I feel safe again, when you’ve taken your leave?

How long will this pain last, for how long must I grieve?

Am I a fool trying to fathom, the reason you went?

Weren’t we there for each other, wasn’t that our intent?
