My introduction

My introduction

A Poem by Cwortknee

My name is Courtney Martin, and I am quite a mess.

I procrastinate and complicate. I’m needy, I confess.

I’m awkward, clumsy, stubborn, and I always second guess.

And when it comes to being brave, I never pass the test.

 

It is only fair that I should judge myself with honesty.

Perhaps my lack of confidence is really my worst quality.

 

I’m not contempt with where I stand, and so I try to change.

It seems to be that I can’t tell if I am sane or strange.

I feel the need to be admired. It’s an awful shame.

I care too much what people think, but then I think the same.

 

From now on, I think I’ll try to see myself with clarity.

Its common sense that my worst feature is my insecurity.

 

I think one day, you’ll see me change. I am a firm believer.

I hate being a follower; I long to be a leader.

I know that this may sound silly; you may say I’m a dreamer.

But contrary to past mistakes, I will be an achiever.
