Deepest Fear

I've noticed lately
I'm feeling inadequate
While my fears frankly
Are quite the opposite
It's too familiar to me
To be afraid of it
Are you still happy?
Is it still worth it?

If I knew that I could never do
Everything I want me to
Then I'd no longer feel this bad
Wishing that somehow I had

But if I know that I'm able
Then nothing that I can say will
Give an excuse for all my fault
Because I'm just not worth my salt

My fear is that I'm capable
But that somehow I will still fail

Not trying to say I'm better than anyone else
Just trying to find a way that I can prove to myself
That I
am more than a failure

Then you
tell me
that it's okay to not be perfect

That you're
happy
and that all of this mess is worth it
