A poem about our inner voice and how it can heal.
For the longest time, I allowed myself to listen to the negative, unloving, deceitful voice inside myself; each day, I would awake, and I would move forward with my day, but in my mind, I was still be held back. I didn’t see the beauty in my life and the uniqueness in myself; I only saw the darkness surrounding me and the roadblocks up ahead.
When I chose to see my life positively and listen to my positive inner voice, my life and my perception of it began to change. I saw things in a new light, and the roadblocks were now wide open roads for me to travel on and move forward freely with my life.
The voice you choose to listen to can save your life; the voice you choose can change your life.
The voices you choose can cause you harm, make you feel sad, or give you new hope, even during those times when you feel at the end of your rope.
The words you speak to yourself will cause you to feel down or will allow you to keep your chin up when life feels unsound. These words can sting, or they can sing, but most importantly, they can heal.
So, If you continue to look up, even when you’re down, your life will start to turn right around. It may not happen fast, it may take some time, but the voices you choose will make you begin to feel just fine.
Each new day will bring something different, so allow yourself to speak, feel and let go, allowing you the room you need to listen to the voices that will help you grow.
Life can be either messy or sublime, but when you choose to talk to yourself with the right voices, life will seem less complicated, and in the end, reassure you that life is not terrible all the time.
