Imposter Syndrome

We see ourselves unimpeded initially 

Some are stricken with a view artificially 

We are told by others very specifically

There is a ceiling so proceed timidly

We try in vain with no support futilely

As we age blazing the path dizzily 

Sometimes we see the results dismally

Eventually we learn to climb skillfully

We began to achieve sufficiently 

Eventually finding success brilliantly 

Living life with dreams so vividly 

Sadly, a haunting voice still speaks flippantly 

Reminding us of the ceiling frigidly 

We remain in the arena mistily 

Each overcautious step taken judicially

We endure the voice shouting viciously 

The battle to continue is done willfully
