Confidence
Wander through my thoughts at will
Keep me on my toes,

Concentrate, do your work
Don`t hang around to pose.

I need your help, keep me strong,
At times you seem to wane,

Surely your intention
Would not be, to see my mental pain.

How will I cope 'confidence' if doubt resides
Deep within my heart,

With you and I at crossroads
When instinct tells me you`ll soon depart? .

Will I continuously shake and tremble,
As I wonder what to do,

With an overpowering need
To reunite once more with you? .

You often creep back gradually
I barely notice your return,

As you visit day by day
Are you aware, for you I yearn? .

Do you sense my need to smile
As again you grow and grow?

No duty do you have to answer
But, 'confidence' I`d really like to know.
