Goodbye Insecurities


To my Insecurities,


I hate you. I truly do. You have taunted me my whole life from making feel alone, to making feel alone, to making me depressed. Why because you trick me into tricking no one cares about me. That’s where you are wrong. Plenty of people care about me from family and friends and even my girlfriend. My girlfriend is always there for me but you always try to tell me is not. You are a liar and a deceiver. But I forgive you, I may not want to but I must because if I don’t than I am no better than you. You think you are stronger than me but you are not. Your strength comes from my deepest darkest fears. You will always taunt me. You’ll never change no matter what I do I’ll never be rid of you. You are a part of me, apart I must embrace and make sure you will never take control again. My life is not in your hands it’s in mine. Your weakness is the positive aspects of my life that you can not control. You feed from rage and depression. Yes I get depressed but not because of you anymore. I am stronger now. So I must thank you, For you have been my greatest foe, my worst critic for everything because you believe what I do is never ever enough. So I have to say hello when you appear because I know now you will not win. But for now I bid you farewell into the back of my head.
