You got everyone marching to the clicks of the ticks on the clock, and your time ain’t even real. ~ Sean King

Enough
I’m smart enough to understand the ancient Hieroglyphs on the wall.
I’ve enjoyed enough blessings to know I’m loved.
Seen enough bad times to stay humble when I’m blessed.
Met enough good people to know the world isn’t as bad as they say.
Experienced enough love to know that it’s worth the risk of being hurt.
Fell down enough to be confident in my ability to get up.
Said goodbye to enough family and friends to know living life is not something that can wait.
Foolish enough to believe dreams come true if you stay true to your dreams.
Appreciative enough to embrace waking up yet another day.
Appreciative enough to understand how beautiful you are.
Appreciative enough to be thankful for your presence in my life.
Man enough to tell you I love you.
Man enough to tell you I love you……
I Don’t See Ugly
When I see you at your lowest point
I don’t see ugly
I see uncertainty
as you try to balance the weight
of walking God’s path
while simultaneously trying to fit into man’s world
–
When I see you at your lowest point
I don’t see ugly
I see insecurity
as the damage of the years
of negative attacks
from your peers
and even your family
start to weigh you down
with enough doubt
to make you wonder,
what if they’re right
–
When I see you at your lowest point
I don’t see ugly
I see a work in progress
–
Someone who’s battle tested
and scarred
yet still fighting
–
Someone who’s been beaten up
and kicked while they were down
but still getting up
–
Someone who’s been doubted
and told they would never amount to anything
yet still chasing their dreams
–
Someone who’s fallen short
and been labeled a failure
but still has the audacity to believe
God has a plan
–
When I see you at your lowest point
I don’t see ugly
I see someone
who needs to breathe
reflect
to remember all those other times
when you fell in a hole so deep
that you never thought the light would
find you again
just before you did something amazing
–
When I see you at your lowest point
I don’t see ugly
I see beauty
I see power
I see resilience
I see life
I see light
I see love
I see infinite possibilities
–
I see dreams,
Your dreams
coming to fruition
–
I see truth and destiny
just within arms reach
–
I see you,
right on the verge
ready to ignore your fear
just long enough to say I do
to your greatness…
–
and why not
you’ve already come this far..
