My Little Positive Poem

Positive thinking,
good vibes,
no room for negativity or lies,
affirmations said daily,
hope in the air,
lighter than life,
now I don’t care.

Free from worry,
free from restraints,
abandoning all past mistakes,
affirm and praise your inner self,
you are just as worthy as everyone
else.

You ask me why I go
Because no one's requested that I stay
You wonder why I run
Because I've grown exhausted of this place

You think you know my heart,
But it's still searching for its home
You attempt to negotiate,
But this soul already roams

You dream I follow yours
Yet, they consist of sleep
While mine encourage growth
Your story reads as fiction
While I live mine under oath
