You Poem by Suburban Lovechild

You



I want you to heal, I want you to mend,
I want you to reach for the stars and transcend,
I want you to blossom, I want you to grow,
I want you to grab all your worries and throw,
I want you to brighten, I want you to spark,
I want you to pinpoint the place that's your mark,
I want you to climb, I want you to soar,
I want you to get up and even the score,
I want you to cheer up, I want you to laugh,
I want you to find the whole you, not just half,
But most of all, I want you to find,
The person inside you that you left behind.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Lawrence S. Pertillar 01 February 2015

Inspiring! So many times I had found myself disappointed by my own fears of being perceived by others as a failure. Until it dawned on me, I was making efforts to 'succeed'. And my foes were cheering on my defeat. While they made no effort to pursue their own endeavors. Very nice poem. Enjoyed it.
