The Mind-Admonishment
A fountain where devious thought flow
A spring where goodness grow
Right or wrong it doesn't choose
whatever conceived it will use
In it esteem is lost
Within it ego is just
The I am not good enough and unwanted
I can do better,am worth it are chanted
Inside the Mind is a hidden Cave of rapid
Where even the soul of the intrepid
In adversity creeps in to stay
Retreating deep within and carried away
The gallant may have fought fear,failed and fallen
The mind cares not how brave,bold and brazen
Rock bottom,struggling on the ground
Head reeling,bottom aground
Why wait for a helping hand
A good-for-naught you will be brand
The mind knows no kind word
It tramples,it snares as a mighty Lord
Self-pity an enemy to the downtrodden
Believe me hope lightens the burden
Let not the Mind win
Pull yourself together and again,begin.
