Doubtful

Being doubtful is often perceived

As a character flaw, it is widely believed

That it is of the upmost importance

In all interactions to project confidence

Confidence is also supposed to be commensurate

With knowledge and experience, so people invariably equate

Expression of doubtfulness with a knowledge deficit

Freely acknowledging your doubts does not well with most people sit

*

It is neither feasible nor necessary to know

Everything well, therefore if your decision-making shows

The doubts that you have, it indicates

That you are diligently trying to evaluate

A problem from every possible aspect

To have every answer is not what you expect

You express your doubts and then try to find

Answers to the questions that you have in mind

But if you were to project confidence constant

You would ignore the doubts that are present

*

I know I have doubts more often than not

I stop to troubleshoot them a lot

The flip side is that I never confident appear

I feel I am always slowed down by fear

But let me be safe rather than sorry

Let me clarify my doubts than spend time in worry
