When you feel chronic strong negative emotion
About something you’re nurturing a flawed premise –
And untruth – a big lie. Your inner being knows
All about you. Nothing is left in the shadows
And it loves you. Now what could be better than this?
Worthiness is a self-reassuring notion.

If you’re not happy with yourself for not being
Able to connect with yourself, your awareness
Of the feeling of emptiness keeps you apart
From all that you hold sacred and dear to your heart.
If it’s the past that’s causing you all the distress
Then you need a much different way of seeing.

Moving On From The Past means you’re moving toward
Something better – not away from something that’s bad.
Your awareness of what is keeps you in a place
Where you’re ornery and have a frown on your face
Constantly and no one wants to be your comrade.
The cost to your consciousness you cannot afford.

If it feels horrible to go there, Let It Go!
If it’s messing with your now and what’s coming next
Then you have to decide which is better for you.
Shift your focus to something positive and new.
Let the past go and give it its proper respects.
The releasing of baggage will help you to grow.
