Scared Poems - Poems about Scared

There are voices all around us Not loud, not obvious, But aching to be heard. Within this poem lies three unheard stories Three souls, each silenced by society A woman who smiles in fear. A boy punished for love. And a girl whose dreams shrink in the shadows. Their pain is different, But their silence is the same. This poem is for them For the unheard,...

I heard a story today, it felt just like mine, In this scary, monster city, it made my heart pine. Someone hurt themselves, tore their own skin, you see. Yes, a story just like mine, it came right back to me. You are brave, so much braver than I. You told your hurt out loud, under the open sky. My pain,...

Infinite world, my only escape. Infinite world, the life I hate. My hand is cramping as I write. But I don’t care. I still fight. The lead is scraping paper thin, Slicing air with every spin. Infinite world, my one place. Infinite world, my only safe space. My pencil was once unused, Unmarked, clean, and unbruised. My hand was once unsure, Quiet, soft, and insecure. Not that...

I want to die— not in screams, not in blood, but in a quiet room where no one waits for me. I think of suicide like a lullaby I hum alone, a final note to silence the noise in my head that never rests. But I'm scared. I'm afraid of the rope, afraid of the pills, afraid of the fall— not just the pain, but the fact that I...

This entropy, it's endless. I'm captive in your void of sleep. My eyes are strung open, My hands clung to you But I'm drifting off, I'm drifting far away, Away from here, and as hard as I grasp onto you, I know I won't be back. Every time it happens. I can't think straight, I am so far off, And if I can't be me, I can't...

I walk through life like a shadow unseen, Because they treat me like I’ve never been. No chains can bind me, no laws confine, Yet they whisper doubts as if they’re mine. Why do you fear the faith I hold? Why does my truth leave hearts so cold? Is...

They say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, And perhaps, if I go looking, In there, I can find some truth. But what they never tell you is that What doesn’t kill you makes you aware. It makes you bitter, it makes you scared. What doesn’t kill you...

I’ve got so much to say, But my words don’t come out right. Thoughts stacked in my chest, Heavy, ready to fight. I try to speak, but I freeze, The words just slip away. I need to let it all out, But I don’t know what to say. I’m screaming inside, But my voice won’t break through. I just need someone to listen, To hear what...

Can our eyes see their scars, Which we claim that they made for us, Have we thought of those scars we made, Yes- we made in their hearts permanently? They cannot step out with dignity, Maybe just for an act unknowingly done or filled with stupidity, Nobody will look unto them or their family, Will their grief also come down gradually? Forgiving is...

I’ve realized, lately I don’t want to be seen, I live in the darkness Hide behind a screen. Whatever virus appeared Attached itself to my heart, It hasn’t left since And it’s ripping me apart. Because heaven descended And took them from me, Just as I thought I was finally free. Funeral after funeral They came and they went, Till all of me was shattered and battered and...

I didn't want to give my heart to another I didn't want to open up again But for you, I want to. I want to talk to you I want to know you I want to be brave for you. But I can't....

My mask is slipping, I try to keep it on. It makes me feel scared, All my defenses are gone. I never keep the same face, Most of the time I feel out of place. Who am I? Do I want to know? I am scared to find out . Am I a friend or am I...

There is a saying that I have heard, And hopefully I've got it down here word for word, 'The Lunatics have taken over the asylum' is what the words say, But I never thought this would apply to the good old US of A. This President is just a big headed chump, One day, I hope he falls with one...

I’m so scared of losing myself. I’ve switched between so many faces That I don’t know which one is real. I keep bending to what others need. The only thing I recognize is this feeling— Chasing after some kind of love. It’s been etched into me so deeply That it’s wearing away my sense of self. I made love my entire identity, Yet I...
