    Intentions

    Upon reflection on a year gone by,
    I notice that life is short and needs to fly.

    As time dissipates in the fog of winter
    Storms that flog your optimism into a pauper,

    I lie back and wonder …
    How do I make the following year better?

    My goals are set for my self-improvement,
    Where I wish to feel no bereavement.

    Goals are so arbitrary, that, at times
    They pull you down into hades.

    As I set my goals: reducing my intrusive
    Conversation and being more conservative

    In my opinions, but only with certain
    Peoples, who lack perception.

    Another goal is too write more,
    Submit more, and succeed more.

    I believe the latter more feasible,
    As the first requires me to be more biddable

    I hope to achieve a certain censorship
    As not to reach hardship.

    • Malak, what I love about your writing is that your heart always shines through. Life does fly by… keep being you. I hope you keep writing like you said you wanted to and keep succeeding. However, please know that you are already a huge success. Thank you for sharing this poem and being a part of our family. <3 Lauren

      • Lauren, I humble me with your comments. I love the fact that you understand my perspectives and that my writing appeals to you. Everything I write comes from within as well as a from my perception of our society.

    • I feel as though gh sometimes our goals can bring us down they can also bring us up at times. You said that you wanted to write more. I feel like that will help more with your goals just like how you are writing about your goals now. Your writing can always be an ongoing reminder of what you have on track of what you need to do.

      • I totally agree with you, which is why your advice will be taken to heart. There are times though when you feel too empty to write. This creates a heaviness that can block me from expressing my feelings.
