If we had no reason to doubt

all our paths would be easy

the problems we face

would never grace our steps

or cause us to feel unsure.

Yet how many times do we

wonder if,

it is right to do or say or begin

so we leave out

doubt has its way

so nothing we say

corrects what we feel

we cover it over

with words that smile

while all the time doubt frowns within

taking us back

to where we came in.

Doubt hates confidence

which springs from trust

trust is knowing

you can overcome.

You can rise beyond the back and beyond

have confidence that the back row

can move to the front,

there is no reason

no shadow of doubt

you will be succeding

in what you have set out.
