Doubt

“No!”
You scream in your head.

You refuse to blow this off
You refuse to write a haiku about puppies or Taco Bell or Dragonvale.

But you won’t bear your soul either.

You read a poem from a classmate.
He bared his soul. He wrote about his demons, his insecurities.
It was beautiful.

If not melodramatic.
Maybe there’s beauty in an apathetic student’s musings on Taco Bell.

But I’m certainly not finding any here.
