Am I scared?

Am I scared?

A Poem by Abel Garcia

Am I scared?
Am I scared to be alone?
To run through a hell of uncertainty?
To a world that I myself have sewn?
And fails to become a reality?
Am I scared to die?
To close my eyes for an eternal sleep?
To leave one giant lie?
And leave hardly any to weep?
Am I scared to fight?
To refuse to give up in the face of oppression?
To stand for what I know is right?
And leave not one lesson?
Yes, I am scared.
I am scared to be alone,
To run through a never ending uncertain.
To a world that I myself have sewn.
And to lose what is my reality.
I am scared to die.
To close my eyes one last time to sleep.
To Forever leave nothing but a lie.
And Leave not one that would weep.
I am scared to fight.
To refuse to give up to oppression.
To stand up for what I know and many agree is right.
And I will not leave even one lesson.
I am scared.
To be Alone;
To Die;
And Fight.
Because I know that nothing I do,
Will ever be right.
