Owed to Oneself
It is impossible in life to embrace each day
When decisions are made to effect your way
A positive attitude contributes more than that to be truly friendly
It takes an open mind and loving heart
To give each morning a special start
Love yourself past all the flaws
Look deep inside to the beauty that calls
Set aside insecurities only holding you back
Confidence in yourself is what you lack
Most are unsure what this journey’s about
It is more than work, love, God and devotion
A combination of animals, land, people and ocean
All connected on a spiritual side
With intuition and instincts meant to guide
More often than not the heart knows right
On inability to see the causes that fight
Temptation for the forbidden fruit
Is where it starts silent and mute
Creeping in deep to cloud your vision with lies
A sin is distinctive no matter the size
Anything at all can be abused if you try
So acknowledge these fruits without deny
None are perfect without any regrets
Make amends for your wrongs and pay your respects
Small acts of kindness are the ones that count
Add a little love for a large amount
Simple as it seems it will affect those around
Reminding them dirt is more than just ground
We were all created with purpose and reason
Celebrate the gift without holiday or season
Cherish each day by gaining what you can
Facing the fears from which you once ran
So take the day for all its worth
Embrace the sunrise as if it were birth
