Ridge Mayberry Poet Rhyme

Perception On Rejection

I believe rejection
Is all in our heads.
A figment of our imagination
That needs to be put to bed.
Rejection is a state of mind
That only matters because we make it matter.
Take what others say and leave it behind.
Only then will rejection cease to matter.
