Fearless
Heart beating out of my chest,
Lump in my throat
I can't catch my breath
Butterflies
I'm scared to death
It's time to confront my fears and put them to rest...

Voices
As soon as 
they come
I try to hide
Scared to death 
of them
I crawl 
into a box 
Then I can't 
get out 
They tell me 
to do bad things 
Go away
I say 
to the voices...

Premium Member Horror Film
The horror of the film frightened me
Favorite dad was the bad guy
I was terrified to earn
May never sleep again
Unexpected twist
Wide awake now
Scared to death
Nightmare
Damn!...

Premium Member Watch Out For the Jigger
On St Paddy’s day watch out for the jigger
He has stamina, vim and goblets of vigor.
His Celtic dances will put hair on your chest.
If I was not scared to death I would tell you the rest....

The Facts of Life From a 35 Year Old
I started off slowly scared to death,
Each new day a disaster,
Then I began to run,
Slowly at first,
Then faster and faster,
And soon found that everybody I had ever met was also running....

We Are Scared of Death
arent we all waiting
in the car at the light
for the sale for the mate
at the port in the plain
for the job for a lift
arent we all waiting..
here and there always
we dont wait for the death
we are scared...

Premium Member Scared of Death
Scared of death
Because of inseparable love
Because of unacceptable loneliness
Scared to leave behind the loved ones 
Lonely without love
Scared to embark on a journey 
Lonely without love
And so we pray together
May God be with us and our family
Always...

Charmagne the Invincible
We’re scared to death of
Charmagne the Invincible
The scary principal
Who makes us crazy
I am not kidding.
It’s a well known fact.
She’s a tyrant 
When we are lazy.

Screams
A ghost is walking 
in the room
behind the curtain
me and you
hearing screams
nothing to do
I'm scared to death
of this truth...

When you see me now
you see his face
you think I am
the one to blame
you never grew
you simply fled
you are the wall 
where I smack my head.

Premium Member Raised On the Streets
Downright nasty
    abrasive was she
  Hostile to friends
    vitriolic to enemies

  Raised on the streets
    she learned their dark ways
  Focus on your target
    and set it ablaze

  Who knew underneath
    was a little girl crying
  Scared-to-death of the life
    she devoted to dying...

A Road
Going down a road lost and confused, 
scared to death with nothing to loose.
In search for answeres i'm not sure i'll find,
one thing I do know is i'm loosing my mind.
Going on a quest to find my soul,
I can feel my heart starting to turn cold.
Someone please help me gain control
cuz without my soul I don't feel whole....

The Locked Gates
She walks to the door of the inn
Her hands in her pockets, frozen
Through the ice and snow she trudges
To the gates of her home
But only to find them locked and her feet are slowly freezing
Her hands are unmovable
And she refuses to move for she is scared of death
Crying in her sleep at night in the snow, the girl, she has no home...

Getting Old Man
Everyone flies
I’m still left behind
Scared to death
I’m losing my mind.

Sitting on a chair
Counting white hairs
Realized I’m too old
But I just don’t care.

I see the beauty
A man getting old
Got wrinkles on skin
Memories don’t fold.

Have money and time
Though no more strength
Let me live each day
Make a longer length......

Cat and Mouse
Late night I come
Dog greets and barks
He chases, I run

Next night I come
Ready with sticks
I chase, he runs

Days go Nights come
Dog plays cat and mouse
I chase or run

Then came the Night I dread
The Dog descends the stairs
Unaware I climb the stairs

We greet face to face
Scared to death
I run down

The Dog darts above...

What Is This
He doesn’t know if she’s in his fate
She sits there crying, scared to death
Their hearts are pounding & this they hate
She sits there watching just holding her breath

He looks at her
She starts to scream
He’s not sure
This is just a dream

A dream this may be
Then why is the pain so real
They need to open their eyes & see
If love is what they really feel...

Premium Member A Spider Pumpkin
A spider’s nest They all crawl out Scared to death The fear is all yours When they walk on you There’s a loud scream Looking for its source You find it’s you Spider pumpkins line up They all have a face to carve Calm eyes with fierce mouth Lighting their hearts They glow from within They are lit With feelings inside A hollow soul

Santa Why?
Santa why did you leave all the boxes out on the porch?
Now I have to clean it up...Yuck!!
Next year don't make such a wind storm.
My dog was scared to death and barked all night!

Santa I appreciate the clothes, I really needed some new ones!!
You are right on even though you made a mess.

Hope you are safe at home and warm by the fire.
Good night's sleep to you!!...

Just Dance
I took one breath 
I was scared to death
Upon this stage
My gilded cage
It all came down to this
Whether hit or miss
This was my dance
So why not take a chance
It's physical romance
Here in Paris, France
If I endure the pain
Tomorrow I'll be in Spain
So I took one breath
I was scared to death
My time is now
I'll make it through somehow
I'll take a chance
And just dance...

Empty Mind
doubts and worries
flow like a river
through the spider webs 
in my empty mind
doubting myself
my choices my thoughts
worrying about the future
the consequence the outcome
tears and fear
run down my blank face
like raindrops on the windshield
scared to death
nervous anxious
my mind tangled with emotion
cant think straight
storm crashing through
leaving debris and wreckage...

Fear
Doubts and worries
Flow like a river
Through the spider webs
In my empty mind
Doubting my self
My choices, my thoughts
Worrying about the future
The consequences, the outcome
Tears and fear
Run down my blank face
Like raindrops on the window
Scared to death
Nervous, anxious
My mind tangled with emotion
Can't think straight
Storm crashing through
Leaving debris and wreckage....

Born To Skate
People say,"He shouldn't skate, 
he's killing himself!" 
My reply is don't hate 
I can handle myself.  
Double vision, broken elbow 
won't stop me. 
Removing my board is like a punch in the face, 
it'll drop me. 
I was born to skate, my board was born with me, 
throwin tre flips straight out my mother's womb. 
I've come to find I'm not scared of death. 
Board, why should I be scared of you?...

Premium Member Why Me Lord
Toilet paper caught my eye.
A little floatie ...... my oh my.
Why me? I wondered.What did I do?
Am I being punished  for an unknown boo?
It came clear about a month later.
When I saw a confused lady named Mater.
She was scared to death she was going bllind.
Having been through it, I was awfully kind.
She hugged me tight and thanked me profusely.
So that is how the Good Lord used Me...

Looking
looking here
looking there
take a breath 
scared to death
of the what is happening
waiting for the ending
trying to see
everything you've done to me
in a better light
trying to make it all alright
but I can't take away the hurt
feeling like dirt
the silence between us
the lost trust 
going day by day
trying to find my way
away from here
to a place I shall not fear
where I will not shed a tear...
