False Evidence Appearing Real Negative voices heard Coming from somewhere Inside that fear rejection. Personal opinions scattering Doubt and ill will play old tapes That harm all known goodness. Sounds that scare senses And shut down reality. Ideas that are tainted In a mind that can't trust. Accusations abound With past memories That blemished a soul. Words that attack And leave no room For forgiveness. False evidence Appearing real, But unfounded. The mind is a Terrible thing To waste.. Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. |

I think you're right Bob.. this one wasn't written recently, but yes, at this hour a hand to hold tends to chase the bad thoughts away. Thanks for stopping by..  KateBlessings Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. |

Good write, glad you left that place. It's freeing somehow to walk in sun. "I am not now that which I have been." |
