I found the way to solace
I understand my being.
Now I'm making changes
but with some things I will be the same.
What I've learned today
couldn't be said in empty words.
It's a feeling of acceptance
I look through my opened eyes.
I have many gifts
and I will share them with the world.
I won't be held down
by the things I couldn't say.
I have goals that I must meet
so I must leave this life behind.
I see challeges await
temptation tries to knock me down.
Giving up and giving in
but I won't take the bullet now.
I won't waste my life away
in shadows of what I could be.
I know there are unbelievers
that do not expect that much.
I will do what I must do
they can believe whan they want.
I won't talk of this again
I will not say I've moved ahead.
The oext time that you see me here
I'll be somewhere I want to be.
Author notes
Recently, I've been writing a lot of poetry about change, faith, hope, and acceptance. As I say though, I'm done beating the dead proverbial horse. Today I apologize, for I realize that I do feel regret. If there's anyone that I've wronged here it's me.
Now, I'm truly opened up to the possibility of anything. Though I am getting older, today I reflect on something I said in my childhood. "I know I can do it. I will succeed in this life no matter what it takes. I won't let anything interfere with my success." I am thankful for my family, my friends, and my true complete self.
Share with me your interpretations.

Great Write as always Brandon, you always seem to find the exact way to really put your words out there and have them be heard (or read) and you give the reader enough to truly understand where your coming from, and by this... where your going to be... wake up calls are the best arent they? (laughs) well sometimes anyway.

Today was a huge wake up call. I suppose this acts as sort of a mission statement. See, I'm very good at what I do. Today maoks the end of an era because good just isn't good enough for me.
I can be 10 times better at what I do and I intend to be so. Tomorrow, my priorities will be in check and work and play will be separated. I may not write as much, but hey! in my personal opinion , when I do write, it won't be the same regurgitated bullshit.
Thank you so much for reading. -
