My Old Poems

Afraid

I am afraid
Afraid of everything and everyone
I am afraid of being happy
I am afraid of loving you
I am afraid of losing you
I am so afraid

I am afraid no one likes me
I am afraid of being lonely
With no one by my side

Once I try to help, they push me away
And once they try to help me, I push them away
I am afraid I am useless
I am afraid I am helpless
I am afraid of hurting someone I love

I can't do this anymore
I am afraid of being afraid
I am tired of being afraid

I can't live with fear anymore
And I shouldn't be
I'll stand up and tell myself I can do anything
I belong to myself and no one else
I don't fear anything anymore
Or do I?
