The Moments That You Self Doubt Can Kill Your Being .....

The moments that you self doubt can kill your being
A shadow of confusion can settle inside 
Like a devil hiding A flame that surrounds your sense
Flesh becomes weak flesh becomes tense
The moments that you self doubt can kill your being 
The clock ticks timing is everything
You want to cry the deepest of cuts
Your tears can not fall weakness is not appealing
Drums in your head the pounding wont subside
The moments that you self doubt can kill your being 
A sadness drives your day 
Cracks appear from the smoothest of smooth
No control is what concerns 
Still a smile shown till dawn
You feel like you want to crawl
The moments that you self doubt can kill your being
But the floor does not adore such things
He is your king but the queen is not sure
Who shall wear her crown
Who's feelings are stood upon
The moments that you self doubt can kill your being
The one who breaks the harmonious spell
Or the one that wipes the tears and hides all fears
The moments that you self doubt can kill your being
Without the king even seeing
You are dying in your being ....

Hold your head high as much as possible and the self doubt will be caught on the breeze of life and dicipate on stoney ground. And out walks the you >> James

Self doubts can really eat away at us and destroy all that is good in our lives. Wise analysis in your poem, Sarah! Love, Carolyn
