**Shadows of Self-Doubt** In the mirror's gaze, I search for me A reflection stares, with doubts that be Unworthiness creeps, like a thief in the night Stealing confidence, leaving only its blight Inadequacy's whisper, a constant hum A chorus of fears, that I've yet to overcome The voices of others, a cacophony of shame Echoes of "not enough," a refrain that remains Unlovable, I feel, in the darkest of hours A soul so broken, beyond love's gentle powers The weight of rejection, a burden to bear A heart that's heavy, with tears that won't share But still, I hold on, to the hope in my heart A glimmer of light, that will never depart For in the shadows, a spark remains A flame that flickers, with a love that sustains Perhaps, one day, I'll learn to let go Of the chains that bind, and the fears that I know And in their place, I'll find a love that's true A love that whispers, "You are enough, anew."
