POEM : Nothing

You tell yourself it’s nothing

It’s just a blip

But if confidence is a tap

Then insecurities start to drip

You don’t know what brought it on

But in a moment, everything can flip

Insecurities get worse

It’s a got a firm grip

One hand on your waist- joint at the hip

But your ego defends itself- gives it plenty of lip

But when beauty is judged on the outside, who cares about the pip?

But you’re smart

Full of plenty of quips

But if life is a tapestry

Then you’re got a few rips
