Insecure

Insecurity is a bitch
It lies and seeps
And a twitch
Will crawl down your spine

I'm fine
You'll say
But it doesn't go away
Just stays
And grows
And who knows how big it will get
Insecurity is a pet
Ans anxiety is a giant fucking treat
Getting insecurity all fat
All meat
Just to bite at you
And call you names
Make you feel insane

I'm ok

I just don't know
If I'm wanted

I'm alright
But I don't know
If I got this

I could mess up
I could never be enough
And I can at least be comfortable
Knowing nothing changes

And yet
Strangers
Fall in love

And old ties can break
And mend
And break again

Things do change
That is the only constant

So maybe my insecurity can change too
It just takes
Some courage
And some will
And forcing myself to get up
Maybe taking a pill
A good one
To make me better
Maybe I just need to be bold
Do something stupid

Maybe I need to just
Be human

And be messy
And off key
And sing my heart out anyway
Because that shit is what's here to stay

So goodbye
I'm off to make a new day
