I'm scared

Of so much

That nobody knows

I'm scared of love

Which grew into aromantic tendencies

I'm scared of my parents

Which grew into broken trust between us

I'm scared of being a burden

Which grew into hidding body pains

I'm scared of the voices in my head

Which grew into an addiction

I'm scared of my future

Which grew into the need to escape

I'm scared of the safety of my siblings minds

Which grew into the need to protect them

I'm scared of the need to bleed

Which grew into nails jabbing wrists to hold me over

I'm scared of the hopeless feeling my head holds

Which grew into creating stories of hope

I'm scared

I'm scared of a lot that nobody knows

I fear for my mental stability

Because I'm scared

Of love, of my parents, of burdening, of the future, for my siblings, of bleeding, of hoplessness

Of myself

I'm scared

And I know it all to well
