Change Your Landscape Poem by Sandra Hearth

Doubt is a small word, but holds great power.
It can take the spark from your light leaving only a shriveled flower.
A word of five letters can crush your dream,
It's strength can unravel your very seam.
This word will control each and every step,
Leave you afraid, in the dark, feeling inept.
Doubt enters your mind and rumbles around,
blocking out the logic and the sound.
It grows with each question you question,
And enjoys the echos of its suggestion.
It taunts and plays with your inner thoughts,
like the mirrors in the fairground, it disfigures and distorts.
Your heart and your mind know something is wrong,
But doubt grabs those moments, makes them feel they do not belong.
Yes doubt is strong and multiplies it's power if you allow it to.
Take charge, be bigger, this is now upto you.
You must cloak it in black like a draculas cape,
You must break its hold and reshape its landscape.
Do not allow it to take root, wrap it up tight.
Show this dark word that confidence is more powerful, gives much more light.
You are now the one on top, no more for a debate,
now you have control, this is your fate.
Grow tall on your choices spread far and wide,
No longer doubt is in charge, no more need to hide.
You are free to do as you do,
A new day, a brand new you.
