i wish i was wrong

#

By KomalPublished about 20 hours ago 1 min read

i wish

my gut feeling lied…

my doubts

were just overthinking…

my eyes

misread the vision…

my intuition

was bad at predictions…

my heart never

jumped to conclusions…

my mind

stopped thinking too much...

i wish

every signal was noise

because the truth is…

I’d rather look foolish

than realize

I was right all along.

About the Creator

Komal

I write poems and stories that hit the feels.

When I’m not lost in my own plots, I’m either daydreaming about the next big idea or just winging life with a grin.

    Oh my goodness this is amazing. Genuinely wow. Intuition never lies it only changes shape when we ignore it.

    I've been there before. Sometimes being right is the worst outcome.

  • Mezmurabout 16 hours ago

    This reads like an unwanted thought that tugs at the fringes of an unraveling mind. Very relatable. Beautifully done. ❤️

    Been there... this is a sad second-guessing. ❤️ I think most of us are overthinkers and over analyze everything 😬✨🌺 Hugs to you 💚☘️🌷

    Definitely an overthinker myself-an analyst by nature

  • Rowan Finley about 19 hours ago

    This is very relatable. Us writers tend to overthink and over analyze.

    Komal, why do we feel guilty knowing the truth and what's about to happen before it does?

  • Sam Spinelliabout 20 hours ago

    Wow that’s quite a mood. There are things I wish I were wrong about too, so I can relate on some level, but your poem has a deeply personal feel to it. Well told Komal!
