Confidence is a mystery
Not something ever obtained
But to be happy in imperfection
Now that's to side-step pain
I'm not afraid of fault
I wish to see how I am perceived
By all that I truly know
To see my image through different eyes
And the apologies that I owe
I would act differntly
Could I ever trust in love now
It always sifts away
I've never seen it triumph
For it's a lie that you must pay
I've already learned the lesson
Completion was in a person
Who saw my faults the same
It put me in such comfort
I felt safe within that place
In the end I'm nothing but me
Treated like I'm precious
Something said all the time
But I'm astounded at your satisfaction
With your less-than perfect find
I've embraced this knowledge
Afraid of being dropped
Not being what you think
Yet I will remain here undoubtably
As our fates are somehow linked
But I still don't understand
Words that go past the mind, straight to the heart... the mind may not understand, but surely the heart does. Lovely work.
