I'm Afraid

By Mischevious Princess

I'm afraid of what life would be like if you died...
I'm afraid of how I'd act if you hated me...
I'm afraid that even as we speak I'm dying...
I'm afraid of what you think about me and how you judge me.
I'm afraid my love isn't real...

I'm afraid for many dumb reasons...
I wish I wasn't!
I'm afraid I can't handle life,
So I'll "off" myself...
I'm afraid you'll take this the wrong way...

I'm afraid of losing you and my sanity....
I'm afraid of everything..
But now one knows
I'm afraid you don't like the "real" me...

Don't let me be afraid anymore....
