Self-doubt
Swinging between confidence and self doubt
wondering where I am heading
whether all of it is worth it
or is it an illusion I’m treading
Feeling emptiness at times
and then going back to where it all began
It may not be worth anything
but it holds a unique power, a strength
To bring happiness and hope to me
and possibly someone else too
Sometimes, it is all that matters
feels like enough to continue
So I let it slide
every moment of self doubt
and flickering pride
And I continue to strive
to find a correct balance
a middle ground
A place where I can lose myself
not to be found
but to be read
not just as a glittering visual
but as a hauntingly melodious sound
