Afraid
 
I’m afraid to be alone,
Afraid to go to sleep at night,
Without bring able to think about,
A love who loves me back.
Someone who will return the love I have for them.
The darkness that hovers over me,
Which keeps me from making a move,
Haunts my existence to be with someone.
Someone special, someone who can appreciate
All that I am, and accept my figure.
Someone who can laugh with me, and not at me.
Someone who won’t just love, but be a friend.
This dark cloud over my head…
Is it me? Is it him?
Could he love me? I don’t know…
I’m so scared! Scared to lay my feelings out
For all to see the real me.
I stay back, and watch from a distance
The person I love slip away from me,
Not knowing how I feel about him.
That’s what I get for holding back,
Being afraid of who I am, of who I will be.
Why does God do this to us?
I will never know, for if I leave this earth,
I won’t be going to Him,
For I might end my life
For the ones I’ve let slip away from my heart.
