Navigating Insecurity Safely
by Christen Kuikoua

Embrace your insecurities with grace,
Yet, don't let them dictate your pace.
They're shadows that may come and go,
But never allow them to diminish your glow.

It's fine not always to be on the peak,
Cool and collected, a demeanor unique.
Value the journey, not just the goal,
Secure your insecurities, make them your soul.

Out in the Middle
by S. Taylor Chew

My lever keeps getting lower
Pushing it down
Day by day

I’d say I could try and get over
Pushing myself
Out of the way

I think I’m just scared
So I start staying busy

She
by Urmila Singh

Deep down inside she has still not accepted ,
that guys would never look at her
the way they look at GIRLS.
Those girls with the eyes ,with the hair
with the nose
This is not something that was an option ,it wasn’t something she chose .
She consoled her friend when her friend was insecure ,
like some girl who has it all figured out
But no one knows that insecurity is something she has never lived without .
Its not enough ,her friends calling her pretty ,

If only I didn’t care.
I didn’t care how my hair looked that day, how clear my skin was, how bloated I was, how white my teeth looked, how puffy my cheeks were or how dark my eye bags looked.
If only I didn’t care if what I wore looked nice, if my pants made my bottom look good, if my shirt made me look fat, if my backpack looked cheap, if my shoes looked clean and new, if my jewelry didn’t look tacky, or if my glasses sat right on my nose.
If only I didn’t care when my laugh was too loud, when I talked too much or too little, when I said something weird, when I was awkward, when I said something embarrassing, when I walked weird or when no one cared what I said.
I didn’t care if people looked at me weird, mocked me, if they thought I was annoying, thought I was easy, thought I was crazy, thought I was smart, thought I was dumb, thought I was boring or too much
If only I didn’t care I had no skill, didn’t know how to play an instrument, or sing, or play a sport, or be good at word games, or board games, or video games, or organizing, or drawing, or crafting, or how I can’t ride a bike or whistle.
If only I didn’t care.
Just be free.
Not care.
Not care about tomorrow.

Crush on a Roommate
by Prm S

I see him come in, after our dinner with a smirk in his face,
looking at you, as a tool, he will soon abase,
annoyed with his untimely presence, I grin with haste,
while he stares at your chest, even while untying his shoelace,

You hug him in front of me, dreamy and bright,
Showing him to your room, excited for the night
My sunken heart can't deal with this plight,
I probably won't be sleeping as well tonight,

My Love, a Dove
by ella v

You are my warm sun-ray on a gloomy January day
You are my rush of dopamine when all I feel is hopelessness
You’ve stayed despite the things I say You are a gentle stream littered with soft pink lotuses

You could have better
But you chose me
I feel light as a feather
Floating through the sea

Do you feel gratified?

marianne
by Mackenzie Smith

isolated in self-doubt,
relishing the pain of insecurity,
at least i feel something.
indulging nicotine,
like a bladed fidget,
just to escape.
fleeing from freedom,
refuge in the familiar toxicity.
scared to fight for myself,
because what if the voice is right,
