What Are We Afraid Of?


Both shallow and deep
An answer;
Both hungry and weak
Some often too bold to speak

"Roaches, reptile, aging" girls they squeak
"Death" or "empty accounts," probably
Every three other weeks

Honest feeling,
rarely they speak
Rejection, condemnation
what more do you seek?

A masked persona
We put on exilic
To speak untruths - "it's okay"
While crying creeks

what do we fear?
Emotional leaks.


"Everyone is afraid of something. We fear things because we value them. We fear losing people because we love them. We fear dying because we value being alive. Don’t wish you didn’t fear anything. All that would mean is that you didn’t feel anything." —  Cassandra Clare, Lord of Shadows
My biggest fear is that eventually, you'll see me as I see myself.
