I cast my fears away,
hoping to hold them at bay,
but when I least expect it they hit me,
harder than before,
dark waves on a sunny day,
storm clouds in paradise.

my fears grow worse everyday,
my fear of people,
of being judged,
of being loved at all.

I only know pain,
so I run away,
faster than ever before,
my pace slows down,
my fears catch up I'm washed into a sea of black...
