Deep inside

The soul

Lie parts

Of us

That  strive

To sleep,

Avoiding things

Better left

Alone,

Trying

To find

Some kind

Of peace

So needed

By the mind.

There are

Times

The parts

Fight

Among

Themselves,

For resolution

Of

Strong feelings

and thoughts

Long buried

In the

Graveyard

Of the mind.

The parts

Must learn

To work

Together

In harmony

And find a way

To respect

The value

Each part has

In insuring

The survival

Of the self.

True compassion

Is needed

For each

To be

Committed

To helping

One another

Find hope

And joy

In living.
