The Mire of Murmuring

Complaining, complaining
That is all you do!
Refraining, refraining  
From the flow of negativity!
You have caused a river of pessimism 
To enhance the essence of your life
The alignment of your words to the circumstances of life
Will shelter an unbearable image 
That will put you in a cage!
The mire of murmuring
Has created a wire around your life!
Negative circumstances stab you like a knife
And all you have is the concept of complaining!

Break free and sing a new song
This is the hour to be strong
You have the power to rise
So put away the banner of negativity
And change the manner in which you see things!
You are beyond the negativity
So ignore self-pity and 
Let your life be filled with a level of positivity!
