Scare

Scared, scared, of success, who will notice, scared of failure, seems more.relevant,
Scared, scared, not sure of who I am, of where I am right now,  in life, in this scary painful world.
It's everyone for themselves, o lying the strong willed can prevail.

Scared of  going out the door, scared of facing the cold brutal air,  everyone else has chin goals and a dream in mind, my mind is filled with self doubt and despair,  why should I even try, for only anxiety, and disappointment will be the end result, I know this for sure, there's no doubt.

Eye contact is a must, it is my weakest link, only they still.want a peek, didn't you know the eyes are the door to the soul? Don't bother turning the key, for my soul is empty and poorly occupied,  anxiety and self hatred, self doubt has taken over.

Scared, yet HERE I AM, in my third year of college, Andy eyes are set on communication studies,
Of all things, who would have known?  If you only knew the reasons behind,  their names are Christian Tess and Suzanne White,  they push me to be the best I can be,  with their extraordinary teaching skills and awesome personality, I never would be where I am right now without them.

Scared, scared, but not anymore, for all I have to do is look in the mirror, and know that I have come so far, I know a lot of doors have closed on my face in the past, but it takes tenacity, strength, and a willingness to stand up and knock on the next door you see, you never know what life will throw your way, because everyone has a place in this world,  for being scared just puts fuel underneath you, to get you going, how you choose to do with it is always up to you :-) :-)
