A quiet voice whispers full of doubt,
It creeps in slowly and circles about.
Watching others succeed brings a silent pout,
And makes the heart feel small.
It studies the praise that others gain,
It counts their victories again and again.
It measures success like a quiet chain,
Until confidence starts to fall.
But truth can break the jealous way,
And brighter thoughts return to stay,
Kind words help push the dark away,
And lift the heart up high.

A quiet voice whispers full of doubt,
It creeps in slowly and circles about.
Watching others succeed brings a silent pout,
And makes the heart feel small.
It studies the praise that others gain,
It counts their victories again and again.
It measures success like a quiet chain,
Until confidence starts to fall.
But truth can break the jealous way,
And brighter thoughts return to stay,
Kind words help push the dark away,
And lift the heart up high.
