I Am Scared

Some things that scare me!

     I am scared!

I am scared to be alone,

even though I am alone.

I am scared to fall asleep,

I might not wake up.

Why am I scared of the unknown?

Because I don't know.

Why am I scared of feelings?

Sometimes they are painful.

I am scared to get old,

because I don't want to.

I am scared of relationships,

I have been hurt.

Why am I scared of monsters?

They are under my bed.

Why am I scared of the dark?

I can't see.

I am scared of strangers,

I don't know what they will do.

I am scared of all bugs,

They will all get me.

Why am I scared of horror movies?

I will have bad dreams.

Why am I scared of you?
