Icarus

Insecurity

I can no longer trust my mind
not to betray me, and devour me
To bury me with thoughts of insecurity
Was it love
was it something else
was it less
was it more
all these daunting thoughts
I just can’t ignore
I doubt I will ever know
what it was
I only know
you touched me
you filled me
with joy
beyond reason
you made me feel
once more
like that little boy
maybe it wasn’t love
but “damn”
I miss whatever it was.
