Limiting Beliefs

Did you thank them?

Yes, I thanked them

For having me over for tea

I was polite and well-mannered

Are you now proud of me?

 

Did you ask me?

No, sorry, I didn’t

Have I now let you down?

Tell me, how should I emote?

So I can unfurl your frown

 

What have you done?

I don’t know?

I don’t know how I should grow

If I step outside of your box

How was I meant to know?

 

Mind your manners!

But I had a question

Didn’t mean to overbear

My personality remoulded

Difficult to breathe my own air

 

You’re not wearing that!

Why, because I stand out

In the wrong way?

Who is it, you think

I should be today?

I know I’m everything and more

The shove came from nowhere

Not a person in sight

Propelled into the present

I have reached my full height

 

My knowing, it became thinking

And I filled up my shoes

Recognising my potential

No longer scared, win or lose

 

It’s impossible to plan the future

To be able to map what will be

By looking ahead and not living

You’re surely lacking unity

 

Now I’m guided by the waist

The Universe offering me its hand

I’m reassured by its presence

No longer wanting to withstand

 

I’m not going back to sleep

Buoyed up by possibilities in store

It’s going to be more than alright

I know I’m everything and more
