Denial
Poetry Corner
By: Helen Rosengren
Denial is a river
That flows through my veins
To my heart it delivers
A way to keep me sane
It just didn't happen
It just cannot be
That is the message
It brings home to me
Denial is a fence
Surrounding my soul
It is my only defense
To unbelieve what I am told
Block the pain from life
Try to set yourself free
Rid the suffering and strife
Trying to live inside me.
"Truly it is evil to be full of faults, but it a still greater evil to be full of them, and to be unwilling to recognize them.
--Blaise Pascal
