My Inner Critic
What self-doubt does to me
I wake up every morning
with a war zone in my head.
Worry, self-doubt, & perfection
taking me to the trenches again.
Self-proclaimed guardians,
filled with their good intentions.
That is until they come in contact
with my cunning addicted thinking.
Then what should be a normal day
turns their intentions into obsessions.
I was told my brain is imbalanced
causing my thoughts to be distorted.
With such a skilled way of persuasion,
even my body believes it cannot function.
So I wake up every morning
and put on my armor for the battle.
Worry, self-doubt & perfection
may be strong, but it’s nothing I can’t handle.
Even when they try their very best to destroy me,
the lessons from my losses only loosen these shackles they think will hold me.
