Jealously got the best of me <br />partied with her friend envy <br />I didn’t mean to be the enemy <br />my intention was justified by thoughts that breed <br /> <br />Insecurity shakes up my bones <br />Now I will not sit on the throne <br />Years it takes to repair thee open heart <br />As I squeal to the world to read <br />Stories of hurt and pain that angst has awaken <br />the eagle to fly free <br />Never let the emotions hold you back! <br /> <br />Riddled with guilt and stubbornness is unlike me <br />eating pizza at midnight deemed unhealthy <br />crying with red wine by my side <br />Who was this entity inside thee <br /> <br />Insecurity shakes up my bones <br />Now I will not sit on the throne <br />Years it takes to repair thee open heart <br />As I squeal to the world to read <br />Stories of hurt and pain that angst has awaken <br />the eagle to fly free <br />Never let the emotions hold you back! <br /> <br />Dodging it <br />Gotta stop it <br />Weaving through the lines of disappointment <br />Sewing my soul to the curb of the unfinished prism <br /> <br />I may of found hell for the very first time of my life <br />thrown from side to side like the rock of a desire <br />thrash it tainted love has made it’s demands <br />I have to fight it or there will be no end <br />to fix the problems one has to look beyond the grass greener on the other side <br /> <br />Insecurity shakes up my bones <br />Now I will not sit on the throne <br />Years it takes to repair thee open heart <br />As I squeal to the world to read <br />Stories of hurt and pain that angst has awaken <br />the eagle to fly free <br />Never let the emotions hold you back!<br /><br />Alana Joy Bailey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/insecurity-14/
