I have some fears,

I have a fear of the dark,

So I leave my lights on,

I have a fear of people,

So I don't speak,

I have a fear of spiders,

So I scream when one is near,

I have a fear of yelling,

So I cover my ears,

I have a fear of eating,

So I starve myself,

I have a fear of being judged,

So I keep to myself,

I have a fear of choking,

So i eat only when necessary to survive,

I have a fear of men,

So i try to create a bond,

I have a fear of adults,

So I don't talk,

I have a fear of myself,

So I pull out the blade,

I have a fear of cuts,

Yet I love the way they stay.
