Uncertain
By Ashley O’Hare
Certainty and I
have never been close.
Changing my mind is never fun,
but a lack of choice is what I fear the most.
My doctor assures me time and again
that I am not claustrophobic.
I have my doubts when I am backed into a corner
with no way out and nothing to do about it.
The human race and I
have issues with trust.
How am I supposed to open up
without worrying that I will soon be crushed?
Certainty and I
shall keep our distance.
I reserve my right
to show some resistance.
