Believe
If you tell a computer
it is not a computer
then it will always believe
If I tell myself
the past is not the past
then I will remember things as they didn’t happen
If that part of my head tells me
that nothing I do is worthwhile
then I accept that as definitive truth
But
If my smaller,
quieter,
meeker,
timid self
tells me I can achieve
that I can be strong
that I can
that I am
then I don’t listen
I ignore
I move on
I carry on
It’s impressive how much belief can determine behavior. Another moment of similarity, BT.
And it’s easier to believe the bad stuff than the good stuff.
POETRY!!!!!
of sorts!
