I'm scared,

scared of going to bed at night,

for fear of the nightmares to come.


I'm scared,

scared of opening my eyes again,

for fear of what the day may bring.


I'm afraid,

afraid to free my heart again,

I fear one more break would be my last.


I'm frightened,

Frightened of hiding in myself again,

for fear of never being found.


I'm scared,

so, so scared,

and that's why I must smile.
