A poem in the shape of a circle titled "Inner Compass" that reads" I know that I will, Live with a purpose to fulfill. Determined to reach all my dreams, Through all obstacles and rough terrains. My heart is my inner compass, it will lead me true, Pointing towards the objectives I am meant to pursue. I will stand tall, even when I do not know my own path, I can rise above every challenge, without anger or wrath. Even though doubters and skeptics may tear me down, The belief I have in myself will always keep me sound. I will stay true to my own vision and what I hold dear, Not letting what others think bother me or interfere. For I know what I want and what I deserve, And the greater purpose I can serve. With a spirit and a heart so sure, I know I can endure.

A poem in the shape of a cup titled "Compassion" that reads: Going through life's personal quest Mastering our humanity is the aim Doing only what we believe is best Encouraging others to do the same Inspire them to live their own way To be the ones to help themselves Tackling life challenges every day We are each heroes of our tales We can improve compassion With careful concentration If you want a solution Pursue innovation There is much that awaits When from life you don’t cower No longer bound to your former fates Because you realized your inner power

A poem titled "Dreams" that reads as follows: I go through life mechanically My actions no longer come organically It's like I am a robot in a human body I stay up at night wondering what life could be like If I only had the courage to chase my dreams with all my might Maybe then my life would finally start to feel alright I stay up dreaming of a life that feels authentic and true One in which I listen to my heart when it tells me what to do A life that lets me start over and change my view If only I had the courage to go into the unknown Venturing beyond the boundaries of my comfort zone Only then will I be able to find my throne

A poem with a creative shape that reads as follows: We Are born With creativity Waiting to be worn A mind-bending ability Imagining any possibility But then we are boxed in By the labels we're given Drawing within the lines Not seeing all of the lies Interest in discovery lost Practicality's hidden cost By accepting how we feel We can begin to finally heal Trying to make life feel new Will allow for a breakthrough A muse is hidden in your heart Waiting for the day that you start Finally living up to all of your capacities And seeing the world as full of possibilities

A poem titled "Authentic" that reads as follows: We can all find peace, Though it won't be a breeze. Creating a world where all are free, To show up as they were meant to be. If we each want to reach for our dreams, We cannot keep staying within our means. We must step beyond our comfort zone, And dare to live beyond what is known. It takes courage to face the unknown, And venture into parts yet unshown. But only by taking that first step, Can we grow and fully prep. Embrace the change, It is a chance to rearrange. To let go of the old and accept the new, And to finally discover which parts of us are true.

A poem in the shape of a lava lamp that reads as follows: Being authentic, Is not an easy task. It seems like it is basic, But it can be a lot to ask. I shed the mask that I use, Finally allowing myself to be. No longer making any excuse, So that my light is finally free. Letting go of shame and fear, Learning to be proud instead. Even though life isn't clear, I will hold up my head. Accepting who I am, Is just the first act. I must see the sham, So I am not backtracked. The sham that tells us to blend, And hide what makes us unique. If we want the arguing to finally end, Our truths we must be willing to speak.

A poem in the shape of the Holy Grail that reads as follows: There are many things that we do not know Which means there are many opportunities To keep learning and to find a way to grow Sharing knowledge with our communities Thinking and studying can get us far But change requires taking action One must act as they truly are Mindful of any distraction It is time to finally act Disrupt what is broken Words will won't impact Unless they are spoken Embrace your own role Stand for disruption Take back control Be the solution Cultivate patience We are all apprentices Finding our own acceptance Though we may have biases

A poem in the shape of candy titled "Sweet" that reads as follows: You can't be anything other than what you are Right now, this exact moment in time When the future is yet to come And the past is long gone The past cannot be changed The future cannot be predicted Stop obsessing over both of them And focus instead on the here and now Embrace yourself as you are this moment A being filled with love and awareness With the potential to be anything If you have the courage Courage is found within The choices that you make each day Treat everyone and everything with kindness For courage is wearing your heart on your sleeve

A poem in the shape of a dress that reads as follows: Train your mind to notice The beautiful things in life It won't be easy at first But you have to try Be more mindful And aware of all Before it's too late And everything is gone It doesn't have to be tragic There is always time for change It all starts with what you do today How you choose to experience the world Choose to see the good in everything you see Look at everyday things as if for the very first time Decide to be kind to everyone you meet on the street Don't let anyone or anything get in the way of your dreams. The word "Dress" is written in a geometric font on top of the outlined poem.

A poem in the shape of a stream titled "Flow" that reads as follows: Keep doing as we are told Following a bliss is too bold Do your best to not be meek Even when there is critique A piece of the puzzle we hold Way before the days of old There are tales others speak About having a technique We each design the mold With what we choose uphold Chaos upon us will not wreak If each piece placed is unique As the world continues to scold We can select what we behold Helping those that are weak Regardless of their physique Know that you deserve gold Even when life seems too cold Learn to turn the other cheek Look for truth and find mystique As new chapters seem to unfold Authentic passions cannot be sold Go after what it is that you seek As our curiosities start to pique
