In writing I transcend
All objects and barriers gone
Words flow through me
Through ether of thought
Nothing lost, Nothing gained
Just flow; the place where I let go
~ M.L.Adams
Expressing life's journeys in writing and poetry
There is always a choice
Of how to be and how to feel
Sometimes it feels wrong,
That you don’t know what will come
That your subject to outside
But what really matters at this time
Is how you choose to focus now
Its up to you how you take this situation
Its up to you what you do with this time
Really what matters now is you
What you have and what you can do
How you feel and what you choose
Never forget who you really are
You are never subject to outside
You are the one with the choice
Of which way to go in your life
You are the chooser of the way
Of the path that your life can now take
~ M.L.Adams
Feel the fire come up within you
There is nothing to hold you back
Just believe in yourself, you will win
Bring up the force from within you
Believe in yourself this is true
There is nothing that can hold you back now
Nothing except for you
Feel that force from within you
All is possible from there
There is nothing , or no place stronger
Just believe in yourself and your there
All is possible from here and now,
Listen to that place from within
All you have to do is believe in yourself
There is nothing that will keep you from here.
~ Miranda. L. Adams
A little motivational inspiration for you on a Monday, have a great day 🙂
When times get tough,
Know that your stronger than this
There is nothing that is stronger;
Just believe
The strength and spirit that lies within you,
There is nothing that is stronger than this
You will overcome it,
You will learn from it,
You will grow from it
Then the strength that lies within you;
Will be open for all to see
You are stronger than you think you are;
Know it and all will see
You are stronger than you think you are;
You are like the strongest of trees
Taller and stronger than anything;
With roots you cant easily see
This problem that is before you,
Is then nothing but a breeze
Believe in your truth and courage,
Believe you are stronger than this
Shine like the star you truly are;
Don’t be defeated by anything
~ M.L.Adams
What is this game
where we have to lie and cheat,
To compete and defeat
Fighting hard to succeed
Life is for living amongst one another
Not against each other
To live in harmony with each other
Not to fight one another
Not to play this game who is better than who
Who can win or who can lose
But to live together in this world;
In harmony with each other
To bring peace to the world
It starts with each one of us
There is no need for this way
Let’s put a stop to it now;
Let’s put an end to this game
To the anger and to the shame
To find real peace and love again
To live in love and wonder; that is real gain
~ M.L.Adams
Energy coursing,
Racing and flowing
Always changing;
Always unknowing
Vigorously,forcefully
Pushing and throwing
Nothing that stopped it,
It just kept on going
This forceful energy
Dynamic and growing
Got stronger and stronger
Til it reached a mighty blowing
Smashing like thunder
Like nothing of any knowning
All dissipated now theres
Nothing more to be showing
Dynamic force
So driving with pain
There was nothing
That you ever could gain
I am thankful for
Your now gone pain
As I have found a way
To rise up once again
~ M.L.Adams
You can’t unlearn what is learnt
Or undo what is done,
Every path is a lesson
To what you can become,
Find the power in every path
Then begin again once more,
To be far stronger and better
Than you ever were before
~ M.L.Adams
For anyone going through a tough time in any way, be strong as you know you are:)
I am open now, my heart is once more;
I can feel again, like I used to before
The fear and pain had closed me, this time it was no more;
This time was different, a journey of sorts
My feelings were just flowing like never before;
Now I am open again, this time much more
I will not close off again for I choose to have love,
Now I know what to do when things get really tough
I have to keep on fighting, To keep the feeling flowing
Whilst continuing on the path, to where I was going,
This is the journey, the jouney of love & life
The natural ups & downs, the transformations we must seek,
For this is where the heart is; not in closing off & feeling weak
The journey can be hard sometimes, sometimes harder than we know,
We want to run away and hide from all that hurts our soul
But this is far more painful, for then you do not know,
What you are missing out on when you journey with the flow.
~ M.L.Adams
This is one of the first poems I wrote, when I first started writing at the beginning of this year; literally on New Years Day( It wasn’t planned that way of course, so quiet odd:). Anyhow It took a lot of pain for me to go through to get to this place and I was left with this gift of being able to allow my thoughts to flow in writing, of which I’m immensely grateful for.
I’m thankful also for any readers too, sharing is a blessing as it adds more purpose to writing and I also hope I can inspire some of you too. Writing is a beautiful way of letting go and sharing and I feel blessed to have learnt that this year.
Thank you for reading,
Miranda
Awake, Awake, sweet souls awake
Awake from that sleep where you hide
The time is now to see your truth
The time is now to wake up from inside
Life is a journey for all souls to take
You don’t need to hide, you can handle this
Ride your sweet journey open and awake
Awake sweet souls; awake for good
Show who you really are, be all you can
Don’t hide from what hurts or you lose what is good
You’ve nothing to hide, only to bring your beauty to this land
~ M.L.Adams
