I sneak through the darkness
Afraid of being noticed
I try not to breathe
Afraid of being heard
I walk in the shadows
Afraid of being seen
For who I am
Not just
The dark
I cover my face
Afraid of being known
I wash away tears
Afraid of being caught
I hold onto nothing
Afraid of being burned
Because few things
Will hold back
In the end
I stand here alone
Afraid of the emptiness
I wander without direction
Afraid of being lost
I huddle in the corners
Afraid of being missed
And yet I hide
Because I know
I need
My fears

A/N: It doesn't flow as well as I'd like, but I couldn't change anything while still preserving the meaning. Reviews?
