​Tell a Story Poem 
Two Arrows 
Two arrows,two fates ,one choice               Image result for direction
The arrows directing me to different paths
The death of five or my love  
The unreal moral dilemma is now my reality 

I have to chose the train is coming 
The train is headed  towards the strangers 
Strangers i wouldn't bat an eye to in public 
Now something inside my heart tells me save them 

On the left  is my wife 
The person i love and adore  
When i propose that seemed to be our love’s hardest test 
Then why does this test seem impossible to pass 

The switch in front of me 
The power is a overwhelming cure 
The power of god at my fingertips 
I can't decide 

The arrows stare into my soul
Choking me forcing me to decide 
Forcing me to murder i can't decide 

My stomach knots up 
My head dizzy 
My body nauseous 
I look at the stranger 
I made my decision 

Image result for free will
Reveals a truth 

Direction

The gift and burden of free will 
One decision I'm forced to make 
In any situation can influence my fate 
Right or left it's just not that simple  

A or B on the test 
My mom or dad 
Study or sleep 
Happy meal or cheeseburger  

Your life changes 
At that  moment 
you make  a commitment decision 
We control that is verily the truth 

We are responsible 
We are held accountable
For whatever we chose 
We must accept our outcome  

There will always be regret 
Sorrow and pain as a result of your decisions  
But we control that 
We must live with it  

The gift and burden of free will 
We make good 
We make bad 
We make decisions 
We are in control of our decisions 

Ask a question 
Would You Rather...

Image result for would you rather


Question, would you rather have a million dollars or have true love 

A material thing or pure love an affection from a person 

For one, the choice leans to the material thing

To other,s the choice would leans towards the love of another 

Each choice pointing in different outcomes 


Hypothetical, but any choice displays the character of the man 

The heart and ambition of a person 

it opens their souls and shows their true colors  

What would you chose 

What outcome 


Whatever the outcome it will change you 

It will make you 

What choices will you make to change you 

To make you 

To Change you forever 


What direction, what choice 

Would you rather be able to see 10 minutes into the  future 

Or  10 minutes into the future of anyone else 

Would you rather accidentally be responsible for the death of a child 

or accidentally be responsible for the deaths of three adults?

Difficult choice 
One you must ask yourself  
one you must make

Bread & Wine 

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day.
Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. 
And what is a Pisces? A fish. 
God assigned trout to be hunted and fed to a land
Bestowing nutrients and good health
And what is a Pisces? A fish. 
He made the sign selfless, full of empathy, and a water element
Not only does it feed but proceeds to hydrate the body.
And what am I? A Pisces

Love, Compassion, Friendship


If I love you now I will forever
It is the only way I can love
It is the only way I think love should be 
I love them when they come 
I love them when they leave
I love them when they hurt me
I love those especially who set me free


I care for the world the way I do anyone in life
World hunger breaks my heart
I feel deeply for hurting of our planet
The hungry, homeless and unloved
If I ruled the world
Not only would I clothe backs
I’d shelter communities with love
The greatest cure we are without

I pick my friends carefully,
Our souls have to connect
Because if I am your friend
My honesty is religious 
And my loyalty is yours keep
Only people who are deserving, deserve me

Evolving 

Life is a road trip
spring was my hell 
summer my rains
and fall brought back my sanity 
I’m grateful 
For everything I’ve endured
Every tear I cried, Tooth i grit 
Frown i hid, Smile I forced 
It was worth it

Growth is so immaculate 
It’s felt in your soul
As beautiful and down to earth as I was then 
By far does not compare to my new ground
I’ve learned the true meaning of peace 
And the importance of taking responsibility 

I found my inner voice, even if she only talks to me
I’ve learned to listen when I think 
And to think before I speak
To measure everything in love 
To value those that love me 
Delivered by self,
for once I’ve done the freeing 
I have returned home 
To love me, to hold me
And it feels just the way I left it 
Candle lit and warm

Poetry Q1 project

Chain

My boxing chain does not mean I box,

It’s a symbol that I carry with me,

Everyday and every night,

The glove around my neck is not a sport,


Never have I taken it off,

Gives me confidence and motivation,

Tell myself to keep going,

Never let the weakness show,


A birthday gift from my grandpa,

Was given to me because of my family  nickname,

Champ is for champion right,

Champ the nickname I was given,


My grandpa call me that because of Muhammad,

Ali the boxer also the champ,

Makes sense,

The gloves will stay on



Am to Pm

Wake up the chain is around my neck,

Go to sleep the chain is around my neck,

Eat the chain is around my neck,

Drink the chain is around my neck,


One small object gives me confidence,

One little object provides me with guidance,

Reminds me to strive until I reach the top,

Reminds me to stay grounded,


Symbol of strength and being humble,

My grandpops gift matches my qualities,

But it does not match my hobbies,

Matches who I am,


Never has is let me down,

Since 9th grade has stayed around my neck,

So the truth is,

This is more than just a chain




ALI

Why is the chain a boxing glove,

What does the chain represent,

Do you box,

What gym you go to,


Questions that are asked constantly,

Give them a simple answer,

The chain was a gift,

No time to explain it all,


Muhammad Ali is behind this chain,

The champ of boxing,

The king of boxing,

One of the greatest a legend,


My nickname is champ in my family,

That's what the chain represents,

My qualities and my path,

To be the greatest at anything I do
