Fear
FEAR
Locked inside my mind. if only I could find the key. Instead I'm trapped in my misery. Free like a bird, I want to be. With Endless possibilities. but I've lost so many years. What keeps me here? FEAR.
Afraid of the tears.
Afraid to take a chance.
Afraid of heartache.
Afraid to be free.
Afraid of the unknown.
Afraid of being alone.
Afraid of the unseen. And
Afraid of the unheard.
I am Afraid to be that bird.
