Poetry - "Stop the little voice inside your head"

Stop the Little Voice Inside Your Head

Be not sad when I am gone
The things I've shared will live on
Your message may not have been so clear
Who you were and why you were here

You can keep coming back
A million lifetimes, if you insist
Until we learn to control ourself
Even in the most strenuous of circumstances

The ability to shut up the little voice inside your head
Takes strength, determination and courage
Once that voice is under control... Then you are born
Into consciousness, into enlightenment

Anything is better than being controlled by that annoying little voice!
Control it! Or it controls you
Catch the lesson, simply put
If you can see from other points of view
Then you can put yourself in another's shoes
