To: Rejection, From: Me
Telling My Biggest Insecurity to Leave
We meet again
You met me on a good Friday
Right when I opened my eyes
You met me at my bedside
You met me at the gym
And I wanted to ask you
What brought you by again
I’ve learned from you
That every 60 seconds of anger you put me in
Was a happiness I couldn’t get back
You cost me too much of my peace
You’ve studied what destroys my mind
You’ve studied what makes me overthink
Because you know my thoughts paint my life
I know you appear through human forms
To gather words
Into invisible vibrations
To creep through my ears
To leak into my brain
But Today,
I take my mind and peace back
My inner peace is my new success
Today, I take back my joy
I take back respect
You’ve lived in my mind too long
I hope you’ve enjoyed your stay
Because of Today,
I’m going to have to ask for you to leave
