Is It Only Me
Is it only me
Myself and I
Never pleased
Unsatisfied
Exalting peers
With high fives
Offering cheers
Boosting pride
Do others think
I don't require
A generous wink
To lift me higher
Or am I a blight
Dull and lame
A dim light
Dying flame
I dote and praise
Any gifts I see
But live my days
Crossing T's
Dotting i's
Proof reading
Telling myself lies
Doubt feeding
A kind word
From another
Might blur
My absent mother
But very seldom
Do I hear
The praising drum
From a peer
