Ultimate Teenage Love poem
**** YOU!
you've wrecked my supposed self-esteem
maybe when I'm older i'll know what self-esteem is
and how it can never be wrecked...
and i'll even be grateful for the lesson you pushed on me
but not ****ing yet, OK?

Esteem must be founded on preference: to hold everyone in high esteem is to esteem nothing.
If you've wrecked one train, you've wrecked them all.

I think high self-esteem is overrated. A little low self-esteem is actually quite good. Maybe you're not the best, so you should work a little harder.

When you're a kid growing up, and you think you're gay, you know that you're different; you're often teased and it can really destroy your self-esteem. But sports can be great for building self-esteem.

Self-esteem is something you have to earn! The only way to achieve self-esteem is to work hard. People have an obligation to live up to their potential.

It was one of the deadliest and heaviest feelings of my life to feel that I was no longer a boy. From that moment I began to grow old in my own esteem-and in my esteem age is not estimable.
Berserk
They looked calm, ripped asunder
As a meteor wrecked the village,
It hung over the skies as a boulder
Flying into the region of distaste.
The beast of rocks cried and roared
For the safety of thoughts was grand.
It wrecked the bravery of a forever,
Wondered why we were so courageous
In this world of human justice.
The beast was wilder than a generation
Of doubters, the berserkers created it.

Women are tenacious, and all of them should be tenacious of respect; without esteem they cannot exist; esteem is the first demand that they make of love.

An echo for a novel dream
Holding a loss with great esteem
He lay asleep with old shadows
Circumvent not, new waken dream
Beneath the sun there lay a bream
Too much ardor for faithful ones
Holding a loss with great esteem
Once blue, now frozen stood a stream
A love withdrew when fall was young
Circumvent not, new waken dream
Each pebble thrown, love was the theme
All was the same, his morning breaths
Holding a loss with great esteem
Two souls conjoined, he was the seam
Her hasty fleet fluttered the wind
Circumvent not, new waken dream
Two childhoods known, both were extreme
Her love took side, and there stood time
Holding a loss with great esteem
Circumvent not, new waken dream
In Springs
Sometimes they walk around in parking areas,
with old hard beards, blue and sometimes days old,
usually they smell of smoke, leaves and ground
some of them do beg for their survival
with eyes, heads stiff, sometimes here and there
a weak dirty joke or still a half smile
but their eyes are without courage, sombre
they are jobless from laws of government,
at the mine, at places pushed from work,
very willing to do any kind of thing
with some stories that they tell each other,
not at all reconciled with their new lives
and most of them are a little older
not elderly, but stripped from self-esteem.

Sex: Take It Easy
Once, the heroines showed their face
And offered their hand to heroes.
They were held in low esteem.
Now, the heroines bare their parts
Offer lips, hugs and embrace.
They are held in high esteem.
Eroticism finds its way to be casual.

Last Beautiful Girl
This will all fall down like everything else that was
This too shall pass and all of the words we said
We cant take back
Now every fool in town wouldve left by now
I cant replace all the wasted days
The memory of your face - cant help thinkin
Maybe if we ever coulda kept it all together
Where would we be
A thousand lost forevers
And the promises you never were giving me
Heres what Im thinking
It wont be the first - heart that you break
It wont be the last - beautiful girl
The one that you wrecked - wont take you back
If you were the last beautiful girl in the world
Tell me one more time
How youre sorry about the way
This all went down - you needed to find your space
You needed to still be friends
Needed me to
Call you if I ever couldnt keep it all together youd comfort me
Tell me but forever
And the promises I never should have believed in
Heres what Im thinking
It wont be the first - heart that you break
It wont be the last - beautiful girl
The one that you wrecked - wont take you back
If you were the last beautiful girl in the world
Its over now - and Ive gone without
Cuz youre everybody elses girl
It seems to me - youll always be
Everyone elses girl
Everyone elses girl
This will all fall down
Like everything in the world
This too must end
And all the words we said
We cant take back
It wont be the first - heart that you break
It wont be the last - beautiful girl
The one that you wrecked - wont take you back
If you were the last...
It wont be the first - heart that you break
It wont be the last - beautiful girl
The one that you wrecked - wont take you back
If you were the last beautiful girl in the world
The last beautiful girl in the world
You are the last beautiful girl in the world
Beautiful girl

Insecure And With Self Esteem Issues
Why is it...
Those insecure and with self esteem issues,
Are apparently also the ones most boisterous?
Rowdy, loud and lack social etiquette.
And always opinionated of those self assured.
Especially those who have defined their identities.
Only to say they are not being who they should be.
While those insecure with self esteem issues,
Always seem to be seeking attention...
As if to prove that being obnoxious,
Is their interpretation of being down to Earth.
And always at someone else's expense to demean.

Professor Newcomer
Everyone laughed at Col. Prichard
For buying an engine so powerful
That it wrecked itself, and wrecked the grinder
He ran it with.
But here is a joke of cosmic size:
The urge of nature that made a man
Evolve from his brain a spiritual life --
Oh miracle of the world! --
The very same brain with which the ape and wolf
Get food and shelter and procreate themselves.
Nature has made man do this,
In a world where she gives him nothing to do
After all -- (though the strength of his soul goes round
In a futile waste of power.
To gear itself to the mills of the gods) --
But get food and shelter and procreate himself!

Star Above
A light source in the stages of the sky
Surprises us with esteem as never before.
This daylight manages esteem like before,
Much to the mind, many times wide.
Then muttering like birds is the sky
Opening us with plight to design.
A sunny day smacks our heads and hearts
To enlighten the souls we breath as we sway.
The star this time is a luminary of stars,
Finding me with heat, heartiness, and strength of fire.

Tcepser (Unscramble The Word)
No-one fed me respect
It was all for me to predilect
And was the blood flowing in my veins
It is now a natural demenour with no strains
No-one taught me respect
It was all for me to adapt other than neglect
As a toddler
With all respect no-one taught me how to walk,
As teenager
No-one taught me how to make sense when I talk
I did not drink it from any dam
I did not digest it from any book
I did not observe it from any wise man
Because by birth I knew
That with esteem, comes self-esteem
That with respect, comes self-respect
No-one told me how to respect

Total self-esteem requires total and unconditional acceptance of yourself. You are a unique and worthy individual, regardless of your mistakes, defeats and failures, despite what others may think, say or feel about you or your behavior. If you truly accept and love yourself, you won't have a driving need for attention and approval. Self-esteem is a genuine love of self. Stop all adverse value judging of yourself. Stop accepting the adverse value judgments of others. Purge yourself of all condemnation, shame, blame, guilt & remorse.
