A good friend of mine came up with a concept on his wall and for me it triggered a poem. Power The power you believe you hold over me Is an illusion, though one you cannot see The only one who has power over me Is the person whose face in the mirror I see Your criticism is not valid It is done to serve you Which holds no power over me I have a life of my own Don’t waste your breath to fire your hurt The water of my self confidence will quench it For my individuality is not your base It is my own and not for sale If you believe your friendship allows Denigration such as this You mistake my smiles for approval And my closed mouth for acceptance What you do not see yet Is the fact I’m not taking this to heart I will tread my own path My footsteps leading away from you. © Dawn Millen 2014
