Insecurities

What do I do with my insecurities?

My helplessness has led me

To the most stressful road

Not travelled by many.

.

The tunnel seems longer

Than the earth’s diameter

Yet no sign of light

But, soon it will shine, I’m sure.

.

My daily cup of positivity

Has turned toxic

In the long row of waiting

The hopes have been hectic.

.

Does talking it out

Help alleviate the agonies?

Or painting it on a canvas wall

Makes one less anxious?

.

Taking baby steps– walking and falling

Slowly regaining my confidence

I’ll rise and climb the Everest

From this deep dark trench.

  1. Minati, I guess all of us fight our demons, and emerge stronger. The road less travelled… lovely verse.
