Unconscious Epiphany.


I thrive and depend on your compliments

And it is only then as a direct consequence,

Am I truly able to write with confidence.


Even though your words are only temporary.

I deem your contribution as utterly necessary,

In order to refresh my wavering, selective memory.


My own validation depends on your approval.

Whether it is congratulatory or discouragingly brutal.

Your input is the one thing that is most crucial.


Can I call myself a writer if I don't believe in myself?

When I constantly seek approval from everyone else?

How can I then expect to make any sort of wealth?


Of a craft and skill I still think anyone is able to produce.

Is there any point in me putting my apparent talent to use?

When I limit and submit myself into a negative recluse.


I was told I must have self belief in order to achieve,

The dream that I am so desperately trying to receive.

The body can only accomplish what the mind believes.


I know I must rid myself from any form of self doubt.

Proudly show the world exactly what I am about.

Believe the words that converge out of your mouth.


Maybe then I will have some faith in my abilities.

   Maybe then I will be able to strengthen my fragility.

       Maybe then I can see the talent you say exists within me.

            Without relying on you to continuously convince me,

                 That I am capable of writing and making history.

Something I wrote last night whilst trying to sleep and the words just flowed out on to my blackberry lol I guess this is inspired by my own perception of myself and these are the things that constantly float around in my head. There is so much I want to do but there also so many things holding me back. There will come a point where the excuses will no longer be valid and what will I do then? dun dun dunnn lol Anyway I hope you guys like this and I hope it is not too confusing my mind is a mess I admit lol

When it comes to the way you feel I am on the "pleasure" cruise with you. Many things holding me back but what will happen when the excuses become obsolete? that is how I definitely feel.
