afraid
what is it that we're afraid of?
some think being afraid is a silly thing
but being afraid is what makes you human.
it's the times we fear of different things that'll make us lose focus
it's the times we fear of long-night conversations and hanging up the phone
fear is when we are afraid of what might make sense in our lives
what might change and how it will affect us
we're afraid of good things happening to us because one day it will back-fire
being afraid isn't something a person wishes for
it isn't something someone asks for or prays for
being afraid is given when you are first born
being afraid is given when you take your first step
being afraid is when you give someone the opportunity to cherish you
giving someone the ability to break you
what are we so afraid of?
there is nothing wrong with being afraid
being afraid or fearing something is what makes us stronger
when you become stronger no one can take that from you
not your friends
not your parents
not even yourselves
