While taking a psychology class,
A warning you must heed,
Never attempt to apply
Everything you read.
The worst critic in the world
is the one you face the most.
The mirror looking back at you
Always thinks your gross.
The voices in your head
Always seem to care.
About what we are not sure
They never seem to share.
They say there’s a silver lining
Behind every single cloud
My question is, who are ‘they’
And why is their advice allowed?
If a spoonful of sugar
Helps the medicine go down,
Is it any wonder why we are,
The most diabetic nation around?
