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
