The words seep in like acid rain,
Boring holes straight through my brain.
Confidence, I never had.
My own existence drives me mad.
They say I'm not fat,
They'd never tell lies.
So why do I still have
These tears in my eyes?

We all started lacking confidence.
It's just a matter of time
and gaining experiences in life.
Meeting new people, making friends
and that's where conversation begins.
Simple, beautiful piece.
