Fly Away Superman

Wake up and realize

what your living for

Get up and wait

for the sun to rise

open your window

and let it pour in

 

 

When life gives you lemons

make lemonade

and when you are given a canvas

stop and start to paint

Make it beautiful

make it worth your time

It must mean something

for you to watch clocks chime

 

When the sky starts to cry

Dance and jump through it all

run and embrace

ever second you can

kepp it close to you and

make memories from pain

 

Stop and take photos

watch the smile spread

as you see what you

have discovered

 

At the starting line

where you are given a chance

take a few breaths

and get ready

for a ride

 

Fly away superman

Take to the sky

wave to your fans

even though your too shy

 

Nerd Glasses

Freak

Take one step more

into the next heat

 

Get it over and done with

but make it count

make each step

farther and faster than the next

 

As you run past trees

feel the breeze

the wind through your hair

the ground beneathe your feet

Keep moving forard

until you are beat

 

 

Frame and Focus

put the point into view

realize who's worth

the answer is you

 

Now whatever you do

do it with alll your might

there s no reason

to ever give up the fight

 

Every tale is not always believeed

so you must make your own

and see what we mean

make wishes believe in dreams

 

When your sitting on a window ledge

look to the stars

some of us are in the gutter

but hope to go far

Make a wish on them

for one will be yours

 

And when you listen to music

let you be taken in a trance

for a one way to be happy

is just start to dance

 

When the world is dark

and your lost on the trail

look for fireflys

to lead the way

we can be in a dark place

and yet find our way out

 

Life is a puzzle

we have to take our time

not rush

and exept all pain

take one step one step

and put one piece  one piece

 

While the world starts to wake

to the morning sunshine

Open your window and

believe life is more better than it seems

 

Believe to yourself that

you can take all the pain Amber

gives to you

You are strong

Stronger than me

Just Believe

 

WAke up each morning

with a smile on your face

If there is f*****g sadness

stop and start to paint

Before I listen to the one you requested I wanted to hear the thoughts of the Requester anew.

Flaws are our humanity leaking through - but its good to pay attention to the details and have pride of ownership to your work. Sometimes a word may elude our consciousness and we plug in something not quite what we wanted - it doesn't hurt to go back and put the intended word in if we come across it during our travels.

You've listed "truths" that are self-evident until its you that need to follow them... seems that when we hurt we tend to forget what we should do to break the cycle; I guess that's where friends should come in - yes? Too many don't KNOW they are depressed while they try to live within it.

NOW, I'll visit the one you requested I hear.

Take care,
Chris

Words cannot describe how much i love this poem. Very different from your other poems, full of energy. You should write like this more

[Christina May Shanaberg]

I really liked this poem; it's full of energy. If you like, I will give you a few edit notes. I think you ruined it with the "F" word. I thought of replacing it with "laughing at," "mocking at your," or "happiness in." That word is not needed in a poem that has much potential, with a bit of editing. Overall, a great write!

This is very well done! I love the photo of the superman Cup too. Nice job.

This is amazing oh gosh I am speechless.... thank you for writing this... in my favorites...

[light and ashes]

Ok so this poem is amazing!!! Every stanza is phenomenal. I love this. However, there is just one critic that I have. In the second to last stanza the line "stronger than me." It takes away from the amazing motivational life of this poem. It makes me think who is the me? Like this poem is written for a elite group and the me is the one that is being ignored without a chance in the world for fighting and thriving. That line damaged the poem for me. Other than that its perfect :] I would love to re review it if you removed that one small line but, if you don't I respect your decision because this is your masterpiece. I hope that you don't mind that I criticed this a little bit :/

This was dynamic, and creative and life-affirming, way better than my fucked up mess.
