I'm scared of the dark,
I'm scared of heights,
I'm scared of sharks
and that sharknado
could happen one day.
I'm scared of what's in the dark,
what happens when you fall of heights,
Shark bites.
I'm scared I'll end up like them,
the people who birthed me.
I'm scared of HIM,
the one who hurt me.
I'm scared of love,
because I fell and fell
and have always been left
behind.
I'm scared of being left behind,
like everyone has done before,
Because I know what happens
when everyone leaves
and it's just me and my brain.
I'm scared
because I have loved,
because I have lost.
I lost almost
everyone I have
ever loved.
I'm scared I won't settle down,
I'm scared I won't get to live and travel and laugh.
I'm scared I won't ever be a good mom,
I'm scared I will fall for the wrong man again
and won't make it out.
I'm scared for life after my grandparents,
I'm scared to be alone.
I'm scared to live
and yet I'm scared to die.
I'm scared of every little damn thing.
And I do everything I can to get over it,
But I end up right back where I was
every single time.
Scared.
