In a tug of war,
between confidence and doubt
Both disqualified.
I overthink things
Both a blessing and a curse
Depends on the day.
Today I will embarrass myself
Its something I need to do
You're gonna to tell me it's done for good
I need to hear it from you.

I know I could move on just fine
Without making myself a fool
But I can't get you out of my mind
I think it'll ease these thoughts, don't you?

I know love is not definitive,
it doesn't always work that way
And when you tell me to stop pining
I promise I will be okay

Today I am going to embarrass myself
I can't keep living the way that I do
Accepting rejection I have to learn
Even with fear I'm seeing this through
Thursday is a good a day as any for a little rejection therapy, no?
Sleep evades
A restless soul
Mind replays
What once felt whole
Heart thumping
Out my chest
Shaky hands
Doing my best
Visions blur
You never touched-
So how the ****
Do I miss you this much?
0400
Please make up your mind
You have many to choose from
Don't settle for me
I'm not a charity case
I'm just choice a,b or c
in my deepest
exhale
i found the
weight i carried
float away
from me
and now
i can finally
breathe
I deserve love and laughter and joy,
I know how to get it I don't have to be coy
I can give love and friendship and kindness, without even thinking of it, so ingrained it's mindless
I can trust my intuition and the thoughts in my brain, I don't have to have someone else double check my every play
I can be successful and support myself
I don't have to dim my light and hide on the middle shelf
I get to choose how I live this life that is mine, and I'm choosing to indulge in everything divine
I can make moonwater on my window sill,
I have many intentions and dreams to fill
