I wrote this one quite a while ago, and it got lost in the myriad of unpublished completed works. It's not a happy piece. I am guessing I was not in a good place when I wrote it.

You’ve said all along
my unfounded fear
in my own ability
was exactly that.
Unfounded.
Not true.
I’ve tried to be
to do
to want
to desire.
But yet…
I fail.
I fall.
Down.
Your love props me up
changes my
self deprecation,
loathing and delusions
of inadequacy.
A smile from you,
a hug
a gentle touch…
kind words of support
encouragement
motivation
the falling stops
ever so briefly
and once again
I start
to
believe.
