Choosing a Narrative

Faulty narratives tarnish the moment

Heart keeps guessing, of what is to come before you 

Ruptured relationships waiting to heal

There are still feelings for life, in spite of such hatred

That bridge of trust may appear unreliable

Only hope for the feet to find some truthful ground

It’s a future waiting to happen to those who believe

Freedom from the clutches of vile perceptions

The eyes look dull with constant vilification

Visions that are detrimental erroneously magnified

Jarring tunes from the out of sync duet

Now is the time to not linger any further

Persist with faith and initiate a purposeful journey 

It is fatal to preserve the faulty narratives
