Everyone is afraid of something,
Whether it be the dark, drowning,
Or fear it self.
Everyone is afraid of something.
If you do not feel fear,
You are not truly alive.
So why is it
That when you show your fear
It is considered a
Weakness.
So why is it that we are taught
To hide our fear.
That it is unnatural,
That if we show our fear
We will be punished for it.
Through bullying, murder, or abuse,
Everyone is afraid of something.
