Release yourself, from insecurities.
Simple, yet there is a feeling of being incomplete.
For, I have built myself a fortified self around these insecurities!
Now, I need to rebuild a self without them?
Preposterous, the thought of being without insecurities seems like a goal I would like to meet.
But, laid out, these insecurities are broken glass and shattered all throughout my fortified self.
Turn away, I do, from these shattered pieces of artwork.
What they represent, are what keeps them where they are.
Rid the self of this uncleaning!
Accept them, and sweep them up.
Since they are shattered and only causing a hazard,
Yet, they are artful pieces? So, how can I?
