Doubt

There is always
so much to think about,

Yet this time, I must do
what needs to get done

In order to better
my well-being.

Doubt is the
constant tension

Nagging, pushing at the
back of my head.

When will the fear subside,
so that I may live?

Struggling

It creeps in once again,
that feeling of doubt,

No matter how much you write
or create,

Nothing I do will ever be
satisfactory. 

I struggle to push it down,
move on with my daily life,

Yet thoughts continue
to leak in and impede

My progress in writing,
creating, living.

Ease

He makes
me feel at ease
when I feel anxious, and
confidence begins to build up
again.

Goals

Dealing
with work drama
while keeping my goals in
mind is a constant process that
moves on.

Thoughts

As sleep
evades me, I
am left to think about
my friends' struggles, and my family's
troubles.

Patient Mode

I wait for the warm welcome
that never comes,

Her absence being the wedge,
impacting our bond,

My expectant questions
met with unanswered texts

And empty phone calls.
My heart believes in a

Resolution, and my mind
switches into patient mode,

Until we are united
as a family once more.

Facade

I approach the
small brick building
with trepidation;

Its windows exuding light,
yet it shields the negative
beacon within.

I unlock the red door,
readying myself to fight
the wave of jealousy

Hiding behind the
inviting red facade.

Expected

A new day glows;
cloudy, yet still

Shining brightly,
bringing promise

of treats laying within.
Life has a way

Of delivering new
surprises. I am not

Sure if I am prepared for
another jolt to the system,

Yet I think that is how
life operates,

Bringing people surprises
when least expected.

Worried
about my loved
ones who are still living

Urge

The urge
to write is now
whispering in my ear
once again, and I must fight to
create.

Questions

Now I
fight to regain
my confidence, restore
my passion to write poetry
daily.

Not Even Love

The love
of my life could
not even pull me out
from the hole of doubt I made and
fell in.

Months

For months
I struggled to
maintain my love to write,
battling the hectic hours
and stress.

Breaking

Now my
current placement
continues to lie, cut
back on needed funds, threatening
my peace.

Frustration

I know
my friends up north
are confused, yet my fear
overpowers my creative
instincts.

Grew Apart

My new
complication
forced me to drift away
from my creative place, causing
sadness.

Island in the North

I miss
my dear friends that
reside in the island,
the area where my gift came
to life.

Missing

I miss
the confidence
I once held close,
the passion to write and produce
quickly.

From the darkness, I
shout for help, praying for a
kindred soul to hear.
