INSECURITY

Saka-Shenayon Menoji Marian 2005 (Hackney London)



Hi, I’m insecurity,
I haunt you,
I disturb you,
not only that ,
I also taunt you.

I make you feel less about yourself,
I make you feel useless,
Like a nobody.
I’m very sorry you’re actually pretty,
but it’s my job ,
What else can I do ?

You can overcome me,
You can fight me,
but I’ll always be there!
Ignore me all you want ,
I’m always there,
I’m stuck in your head.

It’s hard to get rid of me ,
I dare you anyways,
Let’s see how confident you are.
