Thoughts Captive
The noise of silence can be deafening
Alone in a room, yet the silent voices speak at high volume
The first reminds of past failures
While the next celebrates your accomplishments
There’s one that makes you second guess decisions
Yet another gives you confidence in wisdom used
Taking your thoughts captive;
a necessary step to sanity
A negative choice makes for a lesson learned
A positive move leads to building on to the next
How you manage the choices you've made
Leads to the type of 'noise' you experience
Good and Bad
Turn up the volume on those that uplift
Quiet the silent noise leading to despair
