Best Negating Poems


Negating Duality

Were there but two, perhaps then I could choose,
the first and second having equal chance;
for one to win, the other surely lose,
could free me from the truth of circumstance.
Reality is choices multiplied – 
no black nor white, but ever-shifting grey;
select a shade when all are amplified
and set the most appealing on display.
If truth be told, we are but wandering
through mazes where the turns are never clean
to left or right, but leave us pondering
each small degree and option in between.

I did not choose you, love, but I decide
to stay, to fight, to know I truly tried.

Negating Narrative

She stood at the threshold of the door
Resisting the pull to come in
Safer back in the dark, familiar
Of where she had recently been

Dark figures took her sides
Whispering reasons to stay
She tried not to listen
But her fears made her easy prey

Logic was her faithful friend
Yet reason was failing from the weight
Sorrow, grief, and despair
Had built her a fortified gate

She felt so safe behind the steel
That prevented her to fully feel
....alive

"OH...I want to believe...in change
I could almost hope, living could be good
But the RULES...the pleasure and safety of RIGHT
Only give me what I SHOULD
....do."

In anger and frustration, she stepped over the line
Feeling and breathing air for the first time
....since trauma came

The voices squealed to a halt
Not being able to enter this new light
She was aware of where she had been
Fighting for the peace in the darkness of night

Suddenly, new voices came to her ear
Whispering things that couldn't be true
She could focus on their presence
Or think of ways to get through
...the lies

For the first time ever, she said aloud
"You are liars. I am loved and seen
You know nothing of my heart
I've been made clean

Get out of my life and never come back
I don't need you. I have no lack.

LOVE is all I need!"

She set into motion, a new way to walk
She needed armed TRUTH to negate
The ratta-tat-tat of lies
That form a story to constantly narrate
...fear, doubt, and unbelief

THAT 
     LOVE, is ALLLLLLL I need!!!
