Afraid

by Simone   Apr 30, 2008


I am afraid of the past that could become my future.
I'm afraid to open doors because he might be standing there.
I can't show my true colors, because I'm afraid I don't know what they are.
I'm stuck in a world eating me alive, and I'm afraid I don't know what to do.
I am afraid to close windows, because how else will I escape.
I am afraid to look ahead because I might run into the future's walls.
I am afraid I don't know how to change destiny.
I am afraid that when you look into my eyes, you may see my soul.
Maybe I'm afraid everything will work out just fine.
I am not normal, and I'm afraid I never will be.
I am, in essence, just
Afraid

    Being afraid is a scary feeling and it comes in so many forms. I loved the part about you being afraid when someone looks in your eyes cause they might see you soul. that was deep. great job.
