    Deep-seeded fears of inadequacy
    fester within, ready to germinate
    and tear their way to the surface,
    putting on display for the world
    my darkest insecurities.

    Wow, thanks Merry! I'm so flattered and honored to be featured.

    I know this next poem doesn't seem like I'm happy, but for the moment I am.
    I'll most likely come back to this one for revisions and additions later, but didn't want to forget the basic concept of it.



    I can be brave,
    when you're not around.

    I choose what to save
    and what isn't worth it
    I know what I want
    and that I deserve it,

    until you come back around.

    My fears all rush back,
    my guard is thrown up
    to withstand your attack,
    my dreams all corrupt.

    Just getting by is somehow enough
    when you come back around.

    New love is a balloon,
    weightless and filled with joy,
    so strong it lifts your feet off the ground.

    But over time, words and actions cling to it
    making it heavier and heavier
    until it plummets to the Earth
    and must be dragged, like an anchor.

    Eventually, this burden becomes too much to bear
    and you must choose
    either to let it go
    or remain tethered in place forever.

    I release you.
