self-doubt poems

Why Does It Never Work | Ainsley

why does it never work
i try try try try again
then try one more time
after that and it never
seems to happen
maybe there’s something
wrong with me
maybe it’s blind chance
i attempt not to think about
the possibility i might
not make it but it
creeps in once in a while
more like always
in a while

Relationship or No Relationship | Kristina Ericson

i wish he would look at me
it seems like i’m always staring at him

i wish he would talk to me
we could enjoy such great conversations

i’m not sure he even knows i’m alive
and i don’t know what to do

i’m afraid of what might happen
or what might not

should i try to approach him?
i don’t know yet

i really want to
but it’s never gone well before
