kiss my cuts ❥ poetry

fears.

fears are weird
as you grow,
the more distant you get
from something you may have once feared.
you may have even
gained more fears.

if someone were to ask me
to list my fears
i'd say the obvious,
"rabbits"
but honestly
i fear the most.

i grew up scared of little things
like cockroaches,
the dark,
silence,
heights,
but my grandmother taught me
to never be afraid.

the deeper you go on your list,
the deeper the meaning to each fear gets
i fear no one
but the highest.

i'll walk outside late at night
with nothing to protect me
i'll put myself in front of a bullet
to save my grandmothers life
i'll do anything to provide protection
for my blood.
i won't hesitate to risk my self being
to save another.
so no,
i do not fear.
