Pushing Through

"Pushing Through"

By:  Adrielle R. Bollin

Like clouds of a different nature ever changing their form

So too are my labors as I attempt to perform

Like chaos in a storm when the wind and rain swirl

So too are my thoughts as I  struggle to unfurl

Such longing to win but too weary to try

I must break this cycle of mediocrity's cry

I mustn't give up but push through this time

I can't fail again, like vapor left far behind

I must push to the end with a well done assured
Cannot keep wondering if I did my best and endured
Like the setting of the sun, I must become a vision
Cut through the sky with a brilliant incision 

So tired of scraping, it's time for the feast
Whatever I have left I'll aim to the rising east
Live out of this world like an eagle soaring high
Get to know the winds that move me and choose where to fly

Step Into the Light

"Step Into The Light"
By:  Adrielle R. Bollin

As light enters in and opens up the heavens

Bringing it's beauty our hearts it does beckon

Exposing the world one foot at a time

Sweetly it whispers and gently it shines

Yet in it's own time it shines with full force

Revealing the truth and obstacle course

Making things known which were hidden before
Allowing veracity and dispelling folklore 

It is then we can walk with steps well assured
When darkness is banned, dispelled and deterred
To see the light is more than a coined phrase
It's a dawning of the mind that can change your ways

Step into the light where the shadows can't play

Rest in the warm glow of the son's loving gaze

Feel the heat of all of heaven's stare

As you walk the fields and breath in earthy air
