New Poem: Faith


How does one keep moving in the sign of defeat?

My heart is weakened by repetitive unreasonable adversities,

I have given my all—

And this is what has been given to me,

Gracious for my blessings,

Nonetheless, enticed by the natural order of societal norms,

Success—

A different definition in every perspective,

Life has not been no walk on the beach with pristine sand,

It’s more like mountain climbing… through the Alps,

Least the correct equipment for the feat,

How much more shall I bare?

I’ve tried… I’ve tried plan A through Z,

Questioned my hopes, dreams and everything in-between,

Prayed hard, down on my knees,

Fighting to believe,

There’s more to it, than what you see,

Faith—the believe in what you can’t see,

Faith is how you keep moving in the signs of defeat.

I had diarrhea where I ran to the bathroom frequently, headaches, hot and cold flashes, and most of all I vomited to the point where it was just bile coming up. Not to mention a week/two weeks before I started my period, I would experience PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome). My mood swings were/are sometimes dangerous.  I remember dreading my period coming up because of how it made me feel; still to this day I usually have the same feeling. My period warranted me the option of staying home from school on the

My Journey...... So far..............

     When I graduated high school May 31, 2005. I enjoyed my summer. Then about August 25 I went down to Montgomery, Alabama to attend Alabama State University. While at Alabama State University I made friends and memories that will last with me for a life time.       Around the end of my sophomore year nearing spring break a representative from Walt Disney World college program came to our school. My best friends and I attended the presentation after we preregistered for our Fall 2007 classes. After we attended the presentation, we were invited to an interview. I went to my interview and the representative asked me to come and become an intern at Walt Disney World. I temporarily accepted the position. I called my mother excited as ever. I asked her do she think it would be a good idea if I went. She told me it was an opportunity of a lifetime and how could I even be thinking about it. I thought I would have to be take some time out of school, but she said I never been why not go for
