Doubt

You’re making me doubt my self

I’m retreating inside myself, feeling insecure.

Would you even catch my tears?

I’m putting it all in to you

But I don’t even know the truth

I’m doubting you and questioning me

This was never how it was supposed to be

Can’t you see I’m trying to be there for you?

I bare the truth but I’m not feeling the same from you

I don’t want to leave my bed; I’m too caught up in my head

Replaying all that you should have said.

i love the last line because it shows a tone of wishing and regret towards the subject of the poem. it is clear that the insecurity you feel is blamed on the other person, though you are questioning yourself. the two lines where you ask a question are great because it shows the complicated nature of the situation, and the emotions it made you have. thanks for sharing :) :)

The self doubt and self interrogation that reinforces the doubt - the whole vicious circle amplified by the feeling of being let down by someone you initially trusted wholly
the resultant depression (not leaving bed)
The ideal (referred to in the last line) cleverly causes the reader to re-read

Yes exactly! thanks for the read!

if doubt is let inside without clearing it.......it's really danger.....
one of your line says i'm doubting you and questioning me this thing should never happen...........Your way of expression of your thoughts regarding this thing is good.........but in my point of view it would be better if you had made this poem more clear......

Thanks for your insight! The reason it is unclear is because I do not understand it myself. I feel unsure so the poem reflects that. But I will take your words into account thank you.
