Motivational Poems

by Kevin Ngo · 37 comments



Here are some motivational poems to inspire you on a deep level. They will help encourage you and strengthen your determination to not only pursue your dreams, but to make them a reality. Hopefully among these, you will find a motivational poem that will hit you emotionally and ignite that fire within you.

Whatever it is you may be going through, whatever the challenge you may be facing, whatever it is that’s stopping you from reaching your dreams and goals, it’s just a matter of time that you will overcome these temporary obstacles.

These inspirational poems are here to help relight that fire in your soul, to help you reclaim the life you were meant to live. If you find an inspirational poem that does that, immediately take action. Use that power to get closer to your goals. Feeling inspired and just thinking about it won’t do anything. It’s when you use that motivation to make a change, that’s when life starts to look brighter.

These inspiring poems about life can only do so much for you though. They can help put you in the right state of mind but it’ll be up to you to use that motivation to take action and go towards your dreams. Whether or not these motivation poems can change your life will be up to you. Perhaps they can inspire you into writing poetry of your own.

If you know of any motivational poems, please let me know in the contact page. Thank you and enjoy!

As the light shines through my window I awaken.
I am reminded once more that today is another day stolen from borrowed time.
Today I will live and live to will. I will be thankful for all I love and all I have.
Every breath taken in shall be full as I take in the world around me.
I will push away the pain, hide my tears and sorrow and drown out all that threatens my very being.
Today I will climb that rock and sit on top staring and soaking in the beauty of nature, of life.
I will let the wind whisper in my ears and flow through me filling my every sense, breathing life once more into my soul.
Just for today I shall truly live, making the best of everything, because I know as the sun sets and sleeps, so shall I.
I will be there once more to watch the last ray of the sun disappear, knowing that one day it may never awaken me.
Just for today I will live.

Good inspirational poem as it clearly shows the importance of time, also, highlighted how we should react or feel when facing different challenges.for example ‘I will push away the pain, hide my tears and sorrow and drown out all that threatens my very being.’

‘Today I will climb that rock and sit on top staring and soaking in the beauty of nature, of life.’… I really like that

I was drowning in my mind with endless thoughts. I could not hear my words of hope that I have created for myself when I am weak and feel so alone. Your poem restored my balance and gave my mind the silence I needed to hear. Thank you.

Once more into the fray
Into the last good fight I’ll ever know
Live and die on this day
Live and die on this day

Your whole life lays before you like a field of untreaded snow,be careful where you step as every step will show,I tell you this because I know, what you reap is what you sow,yes its true I tell you no lies, my word is my pride, but wisdom is bigger that’s the words from the wise,so be careful what you do and always think twice,cause you’ll never know what tomorrow has to offer as its a surprise

BECAUSE OF YOU
Because of you
My eyes shine with gleams of sparkle
Because of you
My heart melts
Because of you
There’s love in my mind and soul
Because of you
My world never will end
Because of you I will never be alone again
So because of you I will always love you

I love that poem and I have a poem that I would like to share.

TOUCH SOMEONE’S LIFE

You can touch someone’s life,
Just by what you say or do,
It’s nice to be able to do that,
And I’m going to do it too.

It might be by an act of kindness,
Or just by something we say,
It really doesn’t matter what it is,
Because it will sure make their day.

So try and touch someone’s life,
And show them your love,
Then you will be blessed in so many ways,
From our Lord and Savior above.

I hope you like this poem.

The winter may whisper a bitter cold word, but I will not bow to that breath. The journey may be bitter and brittle my bones, knees shattered from crawling on these stones. The morning shall bring a path opened to the closed doors of before, line of sight a pounding heart could not ignore. And this walk to, shall show the you in me and the me in you.

Loving one like you.
Best moments never broke through.
Rain shield by your pouring love.
As you lean on my shoulder like Jesus dove.
Your smile awaken’s me.
Your touch embraces.

Much does my heart hurt and
Far away my intentions desert
Left to toil and ponder why
Deep within the soil of my mind

Ascending in to find the seeds
To plant and water by my deeds
To forgive myself from the past
To gain a life that’s good to last

The seed that grows from craggy rocks
Is timed a time that’s not from clocks
But one that’s given by God’s grace
Grows like one that doesn’t race

Not looking now at where I loose
Nor spending money all on booze
Just moving forward every day
Listening closely along the way

one second,
one minute.
one hour,
one day,
one week,
one month,
yet I let my time to pass by doing nothing
Time wasted of wishing for a holiday
