Just for Me

Written on Jul 21, 2016

Just for me, i'm going to be the one I Love,
Just for me, I'll be peaceful as a dove.
Just for me, it's time to rearrange my thoughts,
Just for me, still trying to connect all the dots.
Just for me, after all, who else must I please?
Just for me, why not, it's time to rise from my knees.
Just for me, approval needs to come only from myself,
Just for me, it's time to remove myself from the shelf.
Just for me, no more surrender, not to the unknown,
Just for me, now it's time to reap from seeds I've sown.
Just for me, on your mark, get ready and get set,
Just for me, from the dark, time to find an outlet.
Just for me, no regret, there's no turning back time,
Just for me, place a bet, as I progress towards my prime.

There is much wisdom in your words... in my opinion you can't love, trust, or be honest with anyone before you do these three things from within and to yourself... accepting and practising this not only will give you the opportunity to Judge yourself but others as well. Another great poem, I really like to see how you take on the challenge of rhyme in your messages/themes.

Thanks Rod. I find poetry to be very therapeutic. If one can conquer one's self, one has the ability to conquer the world.
