Afraid

my mother told me I was Brave-

so I tried

to be

(Brave, that is)

I refused to be scared

I just pushed

the feeling

away

(FREAR, that is)

I conquered

like I was

Napoleon

(the great, that is)

roller coasters-

I rode

stages-

I performed on

the dark-

what about it?

but even though everyone

thought I was

(Brave that is)

I know I will

always be

weak

I can't ke

I FEAR

what if God

isn't ?

(real, that is)

what if I chose the wrong one?

(God that is)

what if when I die, it is just black nothingness?

(no thoughts or awareness, that is)

it is represented by a question mark

(my FEAR, that is)

my mother says I

should not

worry

"nobody knows"

my mother would

say

I know mom,

that's why

I am

AFRAID
