For fear of reeling attention,
she never raises a hand
For fear of the consequences,
she never takes a stand
For fear of being noticed,
she dresses all in black
For fear of being broken,
her heart is never intact
For fear of speaking out,
she keeps the biding thoughts in her mind
For fear of what's to come,
she prefers to remain blind
For fear of going insane,
she shuts down her emotions
For fear of her actions,
she chokes down sudden notions.
For fear of the demons,
she keeps her blade in hand
For fear of them not leaving,
she sacrifices what she can
For fear of no acceptance,
she doesn't even try
For fear of what they'd say,
she keeps the truth a lie.
