After completing
two years of therapy
I thought
I would finally be free.
Between the talking
and the self-help books I read,
I could continue my life
without this
unwanted guest in my head.
I searched for answers
on why he came to visit
but none were enough
to make him desist.
He waits until
I think I’m feeling better,
then he returns with
his upsetting chatter.
He offers opinions
I never find helpful,
his ultimate goal
is to make me feel dreadful.
His success rate
is very high
as my therapist knows
when I cover for him with a lie.
Maybe the best solution
is to accept my fate
and try to treat him with
love instead of hate.

Beautiful words share
