If you need motivation
yet never find the time,
try to put the way you feel
into a little rhyme.
You will concentrate so much
on what you want to say.
All your tension will be eased
as you get it to rhyme that way.
You do not need to sit and think
you can write it on the go,
once you have the initial thought
the rest of it will flow.
As you share your feelings
and accept your creativity,
you'll see the words before you
and realise it sets you free.
I concentrate on poetry
because that is my thing,
some people they may like to draw
or write some songs to sing.
Whatever your expression
take the time to see
how your life is at that time
and how it then can be.
This can motivate you,
as you start to re-arrange
the words and pictures in your mind,
to bring about the change.
You'll do it without realising;
without even thinking it through.
You'll do it just a naturally
as you do being you.
It may be one or two lines
or a War and Peace,
either way expressing them
will bring about release.
They may be wrote for someone
or be about what's done,
as well as motivating you
they can be a lot of fun.
With everything all written out
your mind is then set free,
giving you space to create your life
the way you want it to be.
