Yes, I am.

I am crap at this.


The way you grit your teeth

and how long it takes you to speak,

while you read a line or two

from this freak,

I know I suck at this.


Potential you say.

Do I have potential?

I wouldn’t say so anyway

I don’t want to sound pretentious.


So I hide behind a guise

of a girl with no whys

when all the answers I have to things

are unfulfilling and less than all the questions.


Yes, I know.

I know I am bad at this.

This piece shows the insecurities I have about myself and my writing. How I try to not sell myself as more than I am so I don't disappoint people.
