Beyond The Stars Poem by Je'free Y .

Ladder of self-knowledge is the steepest.
Climb through time with bloody palms.
Gather brilliance over the years
As you orchestrate mind and virtue,
And choose the best rung so not to fall.
Every level taken is every battle chosen,
An arena where you master victory.

To be stronger than the mountains,
Nourish the mind. Nurture the spirit.
When the blizzard and tempest have passed,
The will of your hands and feet persists.
Weather your emotions, channeling them
Into the peak of bliss profusion,
Changing the way you view the Earth
To permit your world to change for you.

Let your entirety transcend higher heights,
Far beyond the farthest star that you can reach.
A mind that has accumulated true wisdom
Owns a heart propelled by love and inspiration,
A muse that can push, motivate, elevate
Even the most stubborn student.
In the end, if you tried to rise without learning,
Then you have never ascended at all.
