Poem
I’m afraid of dying young
Of leaving things yet undone
I’m afraid I’ll leave this place
Yet not leave a single trace
I’m afraid I haven’t said
All that lives inside my head
I’m afraid I’ll disappear
And no one will hold me dear.
I’m afraid I’ve yet to touch
The hearts of those I love so much
I’m afraid I’ll never see
Who it is I’m meant to be
I’m afraid, for can’t you see?
Not much time is left for me.
I’m afraid, oh, I’m afraid
Soon I’ll lie silent in my grave…
With my stories yet untold
With my dreams yet to unfold
With my songs yet unsung
With my words yet on my tongue
With my passion tucked away
With no more prayers left to pray
I’m afraid……

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Don't be afraid of dying young
of leaving things as yet undone
for don't you know that fear will kill
and you'll be left without the thrill
of living life, that's full and free
and making dreams your destiny
Don't be afraid of things unsaid
but rather fear not having bled
it's true once said, the words can sting
but then perhaps, much joy they'll bring
Then find the strength to give them voice
your life will bloom, by will, by choice.
Don't be afraid to reach and touch
the one you love....so very much
for though rejection be the price
just take that chance and roll the dice
A touch might turn to an embrace
and kisses then may grace your face.
Don't be afraid to dream your dreams
For heaven then much closer seems
And death is but a little sleep
while you yet live, why do you weep?
Don't be afraid of dying, dear
then you won't live because of fear
So spread your wings and take to flight
Soar high above, towards the light
Listen close, to one like me
You can be all you're meant to be
So do not fear the silent grave
Live life today, be strong and brave
There's nothing worse than living...dead
Because there's fear inside your head
So live each day up to the brim
follow each wish, each dream, each whim
and you will chase the fear away
Oh, little one, hear what I say.....

Don't ever be afraid......
