Lies reverberate
inside my head
as a familiar concert
Negative
Degrading
Hurtful
Lies
Comments said in days gone by
become the station I tune in today
I watch
old stories dance in time,
linking arms with new experiences
pulling those fresh faces
onto a dance floor
coated with poison
The songs are
always the same:
I’m not good enough
I’m not smart enough
I’m not … enough
Why do I continue to play
these dissonant melodies?
Do these sad sounds
somehow bring me comfort
with their familiar tune?
Because
this chorus
is filled
with lies
and
I need to stop
replaying the verses.
New experiences must
lead a contemporary tango
What I hear and know today must
become the orchestral swell
I am enough
Just as I am
Just for who I am
Just because I am
me.
Old stories,
Old comments,
are played-out tunes
no longer welcome in this dance hall.
It’s time for new music
a new melody
a new dance
and to stop listening to the lies
Know My Worth 
It is very hard to get past the voices. But remember that Divinity is within you and therefore you are perfect as you are. Blessings, Barbara
