Insecure

Post by ccranston »

"Why are you so insecure?"
"Why are you so insecure?"

You asked me this question over and over.
"Why are you so insecure?"

Insecure. Insecure. Insecure.
That word runs through my mind a million times.

I can almost feel the word bursting from my head and attaching itself to me. A brand engraved by you.

Insecurity is a side effect you see.
So with tears running down my face, here's my question to you.

Dear dad, why do you make me feel so insecure?

Should I ask you again?

I've been waiting on your critiques lol. I've noticed you're very honest, thank you. I'll keep working on this one.
