Afraid

By morbiddemonchild

The excitement held within
under my skin
i have an uncontrolable doubt
that once i'm in i'll be right back out
of your life
my heart cut with a knife
of emotional stress
taking life just as a test
unflinching i turn away
i was never going to stay
here with the pain
knowing one day
you'd want to get away
