    Fear of Rejection

     So often had I wanted
    A target far too bold
    For my lack of confidence
    Someone above me

    So often had I wondered
    What they were like
    If I had a chance at all
    And if they saw me too

    So often had I blundered
    Through acts I thought
    Would aid my situation
    But got only embarrassment

    So often had I sat
    Doing nothing for me
    Because I couldn't try to move
    To capture another heart

    So often had I quieted
    The voice inside me
    Terrified of any failure
    Rejecting all rejection
