With thoughts self defeating
From a beating you digest.
Perhaps you should relax!
Give your mind a rest!
Chances are you suffer…
During thoughts ‘infested’
With concepts of success!
Let go of comparisons,
To others and what they have!
Chances are everything they own
Is rented, leased with or without…
Something that keeps them feeling sad!
If you are happy and glad,
To be just who you are…
Your star shines much brighter,
Than those pretending they are better
Than anything you ‘really’ are!
Concepts of success,
Can distract someone who is blessed!
Many have not achieved that at all.
And they spend much time…
Trying to keep hidden a mess,
Kept concealed in their hearts…
For fear of sharing with you,
What they are too afraid to confess!
They are locked into images…
And spending every waking moment,
Doing their best
Wishing to impose
An impression they are hoping,
Remains in the minds exposed…
To trinkets that are flaunted,
With price tags still shown on clothes!
And there are so many of them,
‘High and fixed’
Blissed to sit with lives committed…
On an ego overdose!
