Digging my way Out

Another day goes by 

And comes to an end

No matter how hard I try

I'm questioning myself again

 

These thoughts flood my mind

Self criticism finds it's way in

Self soothing is hard to find

I just can't seem to win

 

My own criticism taunts me

Analyzing and breaking myself down

I can't just let myself be

Rumination has got me in a bound.

 

It's so hard to feel good

When most of the time you feel bad

Have I done what I should?

The empty answer leaves me feeling sad

 

When will confidence find me?

My worries feel so near

When will I finally see?

That I don't need to live with fear.

 

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Just something I wrote about the demons in my head and my struggle with self confidence in my profession.

" It's so hard to feel good "

Yes, you don't need to live with fear.

You are amazing and initiative..

You have a butterfly soul.

And a feeling thinner than the breeze

I kept silent

Yet still it was expectation that regarded my thought

Time flooded in and gazing at stars was something to do.

 

let us now therefore , no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus

called according to his purpose.

 

for there is no forward thinking in the response of a madman is there?

 

 

we would keep to ourselves and had a long list of reasons.not y

so we tried to tell ourself what it was that God really wanted from our lives.

 

 

search the response and make a query not an inquiry.  There is a significant difference.
