Expressions of self-doubt & loathing

The overwhelming sense of stupidity and idiocy
sometimes even the sunshine is eclipsed
by clouds of inadequacy
unable to see except what has already been implanted inside
too many years of allowing the seeds to grow
with its thick vines ever ready to choke it all away
floating in a sea of self doubt
swimming too far in my mind
caught in the undertow and swept away with the current
unable to escape and sinking fast
how long before i finally drown?
standin above the crowd
he had a voice that was strong and loud and
i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
eager to identify with
someone above the crowd
someone who seemed to feel the same
someone prepared to lead the way
