I live in fear
Of not being enough
Of not sharing enough
Of sharing too much
Of being my own crutch
I live in fear
Of not seeing the truth
Of missing my youth
Of making a mistake
Of being called a fake
I live in fear
Of you
Of what you do
Of what you say
Of being betrayed
I live in fear
Of your gossip
Of being your topic
Of your teasing
Of not being pleasing
I live in fear.
Of your criticism
Of your pessimism
Of your harassment
Of your judgment
I live in fear
Of not being accepted into your world
Of not being good enough for you
Of losing you if I don’t change who I am
Of losing myself if I do
