The Impostor (An acrostic)
(NehpetsEnal) #100
There is some truth in this poem
How many times have I told myself I'm an impostor
Each time I put pen to paper and author a poem
I don't truly believe that what is written is poetry
My subconscious feels that it should be more like the stuff I read at school
Proper words, proper grammar, and Ph.D. in elocution
Over the recent months, I've worked hard to overcome this mentality
Self-doubt is probably the true root cause of my anxiety
Trying too hard to make my mark, in what was an alien place
Only wish I knew then what I know now
Right at my core, there is a poet, I just didn't know it
