Image for the poem Stand In Your Truth

Stand In Your Truth

All that you consume to sedate your pain
You deny ownership and focus on blame
Your disappointment you feel is an injustice to you
Does that mean your joy is unjustified too?

Stand in your truth and deny the pain power
Don't let your sorrow grow with each passing hour
Your pain belongs to you, own it alone
You can't pass it on, it will follow you home

If you continue to scream about who is at fault
Your mind will remain locked in a vault
If from all of your pain you truly wish to be free
Take a look in the mirror and choose what to see

You can neglect your desire for a different past
It is all up to you, your pain can wither or last.
