Positivity Overcomes


“It’s okay”

I say.

‘But it’s not.’

My mind shot.

 

“It’s a lie”

I cry.

‘You don’t belong.’

The voice is so strong.

 

“I am going to die.”

I don’t even know why.

‘Yes you will’

My mind now still.

 

“I will…”

I say as I sit still.

“be okay.”

I am here to stay.
