Phobia

I never trust I run away from the sun I hide in the darkness Because sometimes being seen Just hurts too much I look around the corner Just to make sure There's no masked murderer When walking down a side walk I make extra sure to not stepping on any crack Not because of my mother But maybe I might break my own back I can't be home alone with out jumping at the sound Of every noise my house makes Because what if it's not what I think What if this time it really is a burglar I can't stand watching the news too long Because I just can't take it any more and see this is my phobia Our society is so sick And I am afraid of it Afraid that one day we may no longer look like humans But the monsters in side of us One day our true selves will show and where will that leave us? Scary ugly hideous beasts With gnashing teeth And infected yellow claws Tearing up every shred of hope anyone may have Obliterating this world And making it nothing more than a ghost planet Soon hate will consume us all And we won't know love anymore See this is my phobia Our society is so sick And I am afraid of it
