insecurity (Remove filter)
Collapse
Feelings we cannot ignore..
Insecurity and jealousy
prying open the door
we had closed so tightly
When we had agreed
not to take things so seriously
The intensity overwhelms me
Lets just be friends and see..
"maybe its possilble
its impossible
let's just try
please don't cry
I am yours, commited don't you see
I don't belong to you,
nor you to me
but don't get it confuse...

My sides burn
Like eyes are burning into every cell of it
Between my eyebrows are tense
In an unknown anger
My stomach has ghost peppers
Riding a looping roller coaster
Through a gang of butterflies
My back has cracked so many times
That each pop adds another insecurity
Into the polluted puddle of muscle in my skull
My eyes are tired
Tired of holding the tears that...

Mirror
Sometimes I look at a mirror and think I look beautiful.
Sometimes I go back and see a whole different person and want to stop the day.
Am I overreacting or just right?
Am I depressed or just wrong?
When you say you're depressed people will say you're wrong.
When you say you're overreacting people will say you're right.
But what will you say?
Why is it so hard to figure out what's wrong?
O...

Insecure Wind ??
Feel my cool breath
on your skin
I saw you were dewy
and needed it
Did you catch my little rustle of the leaves?
Stroll under those
old oaks and notice
I make sounds
just like the ocean
Shhhhhhhhhh, can you hear my artistry?
My gentle breeze flirts
with your curls
Yet I destroy whole cities
with my whirls
Can’t you see how soft and strooo...

Creativity Costs
You are enough.
Insecurity or
grandiose confidence
isn’t necessary.
Doubt, distraction,
procrastination, fear,
impostor syndrome,
borderline lunacy...
are costs of the
creative process.
Keep creating
through it all.
But, then again,
what do I know.

Invisible
~I'm the thin layer of ice that forms on paved surfaces
A slippery slope that can lead to ones demise if ignored
But you ignore me anyway, because I'm seemingly harmless
I don't think the camouflage I wear every waking day helps
It's a proactive measure I guess
You see right through me
Like I'm made of glass
I'm fragile, but you throw the stones anyway
Don't you know shards are deadly?~

Cracks
Cracks.
Subtle and nearly invisible at first,
slowly crawling over my skin,
forming fractols of scars.
Suffocating,
entrapping me inside my own body,
crushed under the broken glass
penetrating through every inch of exposed skin,
deepening with every thought unsaid,
every night of comfort you missed,
every casual remark you passed.
My silent screams ring in my ears
waiting to...

Layers
I’m gonna be so pretty for you,
She says
As one layer falls off and tumbles to the ground -
Hugging your feet
Like a lash of waves.
I’m gonna be so pretty for you,
Let me be pretty for you,
I will be the prettiest I’ve ever been,
She says
As one layer of flesh peels off, along with her clothes.
One layer of soft lips melts from her features -
Layers and layers till...
