Where did my confidence go?

Where did my confidence go?

I woke up

the usual way,

nothing different

only to find

I'd lost confidence...

in everything I do.

Tying the shoelace

to working at work

I looked, I searched

I still haven't found it,

misplaced somewhere.

Then, I found it!

My Glasses!

Still, it's not quite the same 

as confidence but...

at least now,

I can look for it.

 

Still don't know!

Where I lost all my confidence?

Which way did it go?

Quirky! I enjoyed this a lot! Confidence is something I'm usually searching for as well! Loved the line about your glasses. I'm always losing mine too, made me laugh a little. :)

Thank you A. marie. Its funny since I've had to wear glasses for closeups confidence was low without them, they play their part

Doesn't take much to knock us of our perch; it's both the blessing and the curse of human consciousness.

Must make sure I don't mislay my contacts. :)

Oftentimes, we need to write wonderful pieces such as this, so that others may remind us that we are worthy poets. Indeed, that is ironically how it works....

Self-esteem is a fickle monster, ain't it? One minute, I'm on top of the world, the next, I'm looking for glasses, just as you mentioned!

Thank you Verdant for your words. Yes it is fickle and its most evident in the sporting arena where a pro all of a sudden loses confidence! Its amazing! one minute on top, then the struggle from little triggers!
