Inferiority
Ideally, standing up is the expectation to the present folded lay
Never up to own standard, self belief a constant enemy
Falling below threshold; never reaching the mark of confidence
Events are always weighed by their authority on personality
Roll call of self esteem is done; name is present but being-absent
Intimidated even by the most ordinary of matter and issues
Oriented to believe the best is for others, then taking
Rash decisions to protect its supposed image, but
Instead such personality is whipped each time this happens
Tamed by simple challenges to hide under own shame
Yearning of the heart for the soul to one day break free.
