Scared

Scared
Of who I am
Of what might be
Of what might come
Of all the possibilities
Piercings and tattoos
To hide the fear
Be strong, be tough
Don't let men hurt you
Suck it up, don't give in
Sometimes you have to let someone in
Conflicting emotions
Don't know what to do
Tune it all out
Forget to feel
If you don't acknowledge it
You don't have to deal
Scared
Of what other people think
Put on a fake persona
Then it doesn't matter how they feel
Don't want to deal with inner conflict
Forget who you are
That's worked this far
But in the end it turns to tragedy
Scared
Of not knowing who I am
Of what I want to be
Scared
That one day it might all end
And I never got to be who I really am
