The Power Within You
The power is within you
To build up or break down
To love or to hate
The ones you’re around
The power is within you
To decide what is right
To keep holding on
Or to give up the fight
The power is within you
To survive or to thrive
To take or to give
To be dead or alive
It’s all up to you
If you leave or you stay
If you keep coming back
Or start walking away
We all have a choice
So which will it be?
Will you look to the light
Or the dark in thee?
To build up or break down
To love or to hate
The ones you’re around
The power is within you
To decide what is right
To keep holding on
Or to give up the fight
The power is within you
To survive or to thrive
To take or to give
To be dead or alive
It’s all up to you
If you leave or you stay
If you keep coming back
Or start walking away
We all have a choice
So which will it be?
Will you look to the light
Or the dark in thee?

very inspiring...
i always say...i can give you inspiration..information...
and insight..but i can't give you desire..
that has to come from within...
it's about inner belief..

The very essence in who God made us with 'free-will'.
Favorite line;
"Will you look to the light
Or the dark in thee?"
With all of the power of The Holy Spirit (and a lot of prayer from within)
I choose the light. Please continue to show us yours never hide it!

Very inspiring and thought provoking. The choice is within us all, yet having to make choices is difficult in itself...sometimes we don’t know what the right choices are. Thank you for sharing, NB. I love it. <3

Thanks Jonni!
Glad I could help - I guess you can say I needed it too, as writing poetry is like therapy sometimes. I appreciate the RL and readership - it means a lot :)
