Insecurities

My walls come crashing down,
But just for a small moment,
‘Cause then they fly up,
And my words come out fractured,
A fraction of what
They were meant to be.

I don’t know why I have
So many insecurities,
But one moment,
One word, is all it takes,
To drain all of my confidence away.

So be gentle please
I feel like I’m falling
Don’t let me hit the ground,
For once prove me wrong.
I just need to know,
Just for once make it clear,

Do I matter?
Do you care?
Or am I just a shadow
That you cannot hear?
