Scared

I’m scared to admit defeat Scared to allow you in Scared to admit feelings Even scared to be your friend Scared to tell my heart to stop Scared to feel this way Scared of what may go through your mind Because of what I’m scared to say Scared to see myself happy Scared of admittance and then heartbreak Scared of finding someone to love Scared of how long it could take Scared of picturing us together Scared of my walls crashing down Scared once I become vulnerable You’ll no longer stay around Scared we could grow as one Scared to see where things could go Scared you won’t feel the same If I choose to let emotions show Scared you thing I’m shallow Scared you think I never cared But the truth is I act this way Because I’m afraid to show I’m scared
