Don’t worry yourself, purrs Negative Voice I'm telling you this to protect you No lead in your pencil So pointless in fact No person of worth would respect you     Dear Negative Voice,        I see what you mean        But just a brief point for reflection        I’m not sure I’m really an absolute waste        Consider some minor correction? It’s better for you, coos Negative Voice To know that you’re practically useless No rain in your storm cloud So juiceless in fact You’re toothless, inept, and excuseless     Dear Negative Voice,        A stirring reply        Is this in totality truthful?        I’m sure my ineptitude has measured bounds        And even just sometimes, I’m useful The beauty of living this version of truth Is, you are at maximum harm Nothing they’re possibly saying to you Will add to your sense of alarm Providing agreement to monster-y ones Might also afford added aid Appeasing and easing an excessive ego May downgrade a wailing cascade     Dear Negative Voice,        Deep thanks for your thoughts        A note of some gentle resistance            I notice I’m having the thought that I’m worthless            Historically helpful, but now with no purpose        Distinct in my voice, yours holds limited purchase            So now I can give you some distance            I humbly suggest            This grateful request        For inner, more peaceful existence

Self-talk about self-talk
