afraid of my shadow, the noise in the night,
someday afraid to get out of bed.
afraid of the neighbors, and the people at the store,
i want to hide myself away.
afraid of the judgment in each passing glance,
the disapproval in their faces.
afraid to be alone, yet afraid to take a chance,
afraid of what is in the dark be it in the house or in his heart
