Insecurity internalized
Pushy bitch externalized
Push it back behind these eyes
Insecurity externalized.

Afraid to ask wherefores and whys
Feeling diminutive in mental size
And sadness lurks behind these eyes
Where indecision dormant lies

In anguish and in stifled cries
And infernal fiends internal try
To denigrating scars incise
And atrophy externalize.

When later spirit within me thrives
And decides to try its luck outside
The infernal fiends internal size
It up and see that they preside.

And forever stuck behind these eyes
Assertion, pride, and potential hide
Pale faces, frail, demoralized
Stifled behind this weary guise.

good metaphore on being brave with our selves. Having the guts to put our inner self on the outside... that's rough for some of us.

With expression like this, you should never feel "diminutive in mental size". No, more so inferior yet misunderstood. It's a magnificent poem. Love it.
