I don’t know what to do with my 

Fear 

I am damned if I 

Do

And damned if I 

Don’t

It is like a locked cage

And I can’t quite think 

My way around the key

It feels safer that way 

When I can put up walls

Barriers

Pillows and padding to cushion myself

Against this world

But the fear doesn’t simply exist in a void

Action, and inaction both have consequences 

And I cannot decide which ones

Are the worst

What will cost the most

Because I don’t want to lose myself

And I don’t want to lose you either

But if I really had to choose?

I know I’d pick you every time

So what am I really afraid of

Anyways?
