A Poem For You


 
I commend you for all of your achievements and life accomplishments 
 
I can see you’ve been through so much even though you don’t show it on the surface
 
You are everything you need to be to become the person you want to embody 
 
You put your mind to something then like magic, you make into your reality 
 
You’re your own genie manifesting your dreams and creating them with ease 
 
Giving yourself infinite wishes and tons of opportunities
 
Hopefully you can live your life more happily
 
The past hasn’t been to kind to you, right now you’re struggling 
 
The future seems unrealistic even though you know it’s coming 
 
When situations get dirty you mindlessly roll up your sleeves and get busy
 
No one else cleans up nicer than you
 
Hard days work leaves you sleepy 
 
Now you’re in bed contemplating each and every choice you’ve made
 
wondering if things could’ve gone differently 
 
Tell yourself everything went the way it was meant to 
 
No matter how good or bad of the outcome 
 
Can’t rewind time just play out life’s events and stay in the moment
 
Make mistakes- learn from them, made someone’s day with no selfish motives?
 
Pat yourself on the back- you’re a good person 
 
Most people battle with negative thoughts 
 
Combat them with positive ones 
 
Stand up tall face the mirror and say
 
I’m going to do my best today and that’s good enough for me 
 
Repeat this daily because you’re amazing
