I don't know how to tell you this
So maybe I'll just run
I don't know how to look at you
Your eyes bring me undone
It's like sinking into the deepest ocean
Falling from the highest high
Staring, gaping,
At a storm threatened sky
I don't think you want to know
So is it okay if I just run
You'll probably hate me anyhow
So it's better I just go
Fear is like a binding chain
Tight against my chest
To choke me til it all pours out
And finally I rest
I didn't mean to feel this way
But I hoped you'd feel it too
When I took the chance to conquer fear
And told you I loved you

Poetry: My fear
by Maffew James
I don't know how to tell you this
So maybe I'll just run
I don't know how to look at you
Your eyes bring me undone
It's like
I stare down at the evidence
Of something so dependable
After all this time, planning
Reading with my eyes, scanning
Now
Fear lurks within me,
Deep inside my mind.
Cluttered in a dark room,
Bitter and unkind.
Waiting and begging to be free,
by HL Borden
I fear that I am not good enough.
I fear that by not letting people get to know the inner me, they think that the surface
Fear
I often sit looking out my window
A bleak look upon my face
The world outside my window
Nothing more than a disguise
