Listen To My Story - Poem

A section of many of the poems I write are based on concepts about believing in yourself and acknowledging your own uniqueness and greatness. As with all the world, each of us were created within the image of G-d with our own share of talents and skills. Nobody is like you, now. Nobody was like you, ever. The YOU that G-d created will never be created again. You are who you are for a reason and your own unique abilities define your greatness, not your weakness.

Continuing on the topic of uniqueness, it comes as no surprise to you, I am sure, that each person, no matter their dreams, abilities and talents, journeyed to achieving their dreams differently, than anyone else with that same dream. For example, take me. My dream is to write a book of poems one day, or even to have my own section in a magazine to be able to share these thoughts and feelings of mine. Alongside that, my graphic design: I hope one day to design for album covers and book covers. My dreams are unique to myself and although others enjoy these things they will not go on the same journey I am going or will go, to achieve that.

They will follow the path that leads to their dreams... not to mine.

I hope you enjoy this poem about understanding your gifts and achieving your destiny. I am very excited to share it with you.

Listen To My Story - Poem
Some legends, they fade,
Some, for the plot, they were made,
But mine is reality,
So won't you listen to my story?
Myths don't exist,
This is a plot you can't resist,
Take a peek at reality,
Listen to my story.

Searching for my reason,
A truth to help me believe I'm,
Worth something for this life,
It cuts deeper than a knife,
Painting my destiny.
Those lines and splashes,
Those bloodstains and scratches,
Lend narrative to page,
Lights for stage,
Preparing my legacy.

Some legends, they fade,
Some, for the plot, they were made,
But mine is reality,
So won't you listen to my story?
Myths don't exist,
This is a plot you can't resist,
Take a peek at reality,
Listen to my story.

The roads lead to unknown,
Places on the map, not shown,
But I follow the trail,
Return if I derail,
Learn from my mistakes.
The thorns cut open my vein,
Every step, now a strain,
But the bleeding will stop,
The bomb will soon drop,
I'll do whatever it takes.

Some legends, they fade,
Some, for the plot, they were made,
But mine is reality,
So won't you listen to my story?
Myths don't exist,
This is a plot you can't resist,
Take a peek at reality,
Listen to my story.

Looking up to the heavens,
Ready to run,
Been waiting forever,
Now my time has come.

Some legends, they fade,
Some, for the plot, they were made,
But mine is reality,
So won't you listen to my story?
Myths don't exist,
This is a plot you can't resist,
Take a peek at reality,
Listen to my story.
