Rising From The Blue

Believe in yourself and aim for the stars :)

Rising From The Blue

She sits all alone

By her window sill

Her future is unknown

Like clouds over the hill

 

Wonders what’s in store for her

Will all her dreams come true

But everything seemed a blur

As anxieties increasingly grew

 

But then she recalls

The best of advice

She won’t ever fall

For she won’t be born twice

 

Create your own life

And work hard for it

You won’t get it twice

Make your choices worth it

 

And enjoy it to its fullest too

As it’s an essential aspect

Don’t waste your time in blue

Otherwise you’ll regret

 

Life is a precious gift

Fate is your decision

So let your hopes uplift

Cause you’re worth appreciation

Really like this poem. Its simple, but you can still see the point you want to state. Or at least what the reader believes its trying to tell you. Very good.

We cannot see every step of the way. The light only shines on one spot at a time. As you search you discover more of who you are and what you are called to do.

[PoeticSorcery]

we all need a little advice from time to time, and the best advice is given by those who have suffered.

[Jess]

Well said .

[PoeticSorcery]

cool, I always try to make since myself :)

[Paul Bell]

So true, time waits for no man. Best advice I ever got was, get out there and fail.

I have to say this, don't take this the wrong way, but this felt a little bland. And I suspect it is because you were trying to fit your ideas into a rhyme scheme. For a song, this would be great lyrics. But for a poem, it felt forced.

I think you can do better. Let the ideas flow, don't be so keen on aligning it all in a rhyme scheme. Allow the thoughts flow and you may even be surprised that without making a conscious effort, you may very easily get an incredible rhyme going. Keep writing though. I still will check out all your other poems and I'm subscribed to your writings as well. Cheers.

short. simple. accurate & absolutely way uplifting. must say, it's a worth-reading post. totally time utilizing!

today, most of the youth's being so sunk into the pleasure of "unknown" tamed ecstasy that further has 'em completely drained... to love. being so wondered in the enigma of life, they being gone too far ev'n from their true self, resulting .. the destruction of life, anxiety, depression and the dilemma of night's all what's counted in the shorten life so i guess, this's one hell of a generous post that hustling people of this world walking straight up ahead & letting things be.. go into grey ashes along with burning past & let start up anew journey of life with love, peace and lights. enjoyed reading your post. one of my fav. poetry it is. some of the lines that i pick to name one of my all time fav. are:

"Create your own life, And work hard for it
You won’t get it twice, Make your choices worth it... "

great work, sugar.
am pretty sure would be looking forward to reading your work in time.

But does one seek light, or does light just find the one in the dark eventually? Is it really seeking if you don't do it? Perhaps it is wishing for it in some mysterious way, and then it arrives to you. I would rather just sit at the window and look at the world and find some niche of comfort.

[Jess]

Well in my opinion light will find you if you seek for it by working hard and having determination on your respective goal.

[😂]

I don't see much in terms of "goals" nowadays. It's a rather dim world, not that I want to sound like some typical drab individual, but if people cannot acknowledge the severe nature of the situation, should they even have a goal? I do respect determination in a sense, but I understand it slightly differently from most. I don't see "determination" as a thing which is in service to the world. I see it as something someone just feels. The goal they set it to often makes a mockery of what degree of determination they possess. I can respect hard work as an escape from our more frantic fantasies, but hardly as a true noble investment. I think light will find you no matter what, but it leaves you as well.
