Overcome by Guest Poet Tiffany

Overcome

I've rode that Guilt trip for way too long

So I'm getting off at the next stop

Worry was my best friend

So I had to end our friendship

Negative Thinking kept me company every night

So since they over stayed their welcome I had to put them out

Unworthiness was knockin' at my door

So I decided not to answer

Insecurities walked with me hand in hand

So I had to release my grip

Self Doubt clothed me

So I had to change my style of dress

Fear kept my checkbook unbalanced

So I stop writing checks

Self Pity was my addiction

So I forced myself to kick that habit

Depression was my late night snack

So I went on a diet

Stress was a constant battle

But I won that war

Don't let your flaws overshadow the good in you.

We all have things to improve on.

I continue to keep my mind and heart open.
