Hush, Be Quiet
Hush, be quiet you old familiar voice of negativity.
The one that is full of doubt, fault finding and self
sabatoge.
There is no mercy, no kindness or love in you, only
dislike and distrust.
Complete silence of the mind is much better than your noise.
But sometimes the future unknown, is more fearful
than the known misery.
However just when the loud voice of poison vents
to almost drown out any future hope, it happens.
A flicker of light, from small twigs of long ago
embers restores memories of a different voice.
A voice not beat up by accounts of life's failures,
loses, disappointments and deaths.
It holds out tender love, forgiveness and a balanced
reality in learning to express a new voice.
This voice will nurtue the one carrying it and
those it meets on the journey of life .
