I'm scared Daddy
I'm scared of myself
I'm scared of Below
I'm scared of the welts
On my arms
And legs
And the sweat on my head
I'm afraid that sometimes
I kinda wish I were dead
I'm scared Daddy
I'm scared of the sky
I'm scared of the dirt
I'm scared I will cry
Closing my eyes
Won't make fear go away
Won't make pain go away
Won't make me go away
How I wish
It could be
How I want it to be
I would become the sea
So that I wouldn't need anything
Except the moon to move me
Daddy, can I be the sea?
The sea is better than me
