Afraid

Afraid,
Afraid of living,
Some might say,
Live the life you want,
And be great,
For only you,
Can decide,
Afraid,
Afraid of loving,
Loving someone with,
Every breath you take,
Some might say,
You can’t choose who,
You love,
Take your time,
And let love find you,
Afraid,
Afraid of dying,
Taking your last breath,
Without living,
Without loving,
Afraid.
