Confidence

“You can never do this”, I am told
Do I dare believe this?
Why is this self-doubt creeping into my mind?
Does growing up have to be so painful?
But wait, I see a light somewhere
Is the balance tilting in my favor?
I need to get up
I need to awake from my slumber
My time has come
And nothing can stop me
I can clearly see my goal
So please you people
Support me in my dream
Help me reach the stars
Believe in me

This was a poem I wrote for an event. I do not know its worth. But it sure does convey what I had in mind....

Its worth lies in conveying what you had in mind! Why the return to self-doubt? I can totally connect to most of this post. Just that the Ayn Randian(!) in me addresses the poem to myself... I ask myself to believe in me! Then it doesn't matter who else does or doesn't. And if you can clearly see your goal, you are there too, right?
