Seems likely,

a state of mind

is driven by fear,

those unknowns hanging around.

We do lie to ourselves,

a constant berating,

always measuring

until we can no longer hang on.

Oh, silly little lies,

those moments of unravel,

where our mind does leave

our heart lilting behind.

Oh the soul,

that place so sacred

we think about afterward,

and wonder what comes next.

These silly little lies,

occupy our mind,

give careless direction

to wanting competitors.
