On The Periphery Poem by Callie Carroll

On The Periphery

Rating: 5.0


I have decided to doubt. I am
unable to accept belief on
the value of its good, clean face.

I focus
on the smudge,
the inconsistency,
the shadow in the corner.
I rely upon my doubt. I have
complete confidence in it.

Faith- that suspension of reason-
requires more of me
than I possess.

It takes
courage to stand
face forward in my
Isolation.

I doubt
that I can
change.

Hello Callie! what a great poem this is, an honest inward look at one's self always catches my attention and I wish I wrote it good to see you're back to writing
