We live life each and every day Wond’ring when we’ll come to say I am not afraid Spiders, clowns, nightmares All seem so cruel, unfair, Not to me I fear not death Nor the smell of my breath, I fear people Not thoughts or opinions Or loss of dominion, But unconsciousness I fear misinterpretation And the discrimination Of my voice Maybe odd maybe strange And someday I may change, But not today. Call me different-weird Your words are only smeared, For I am me. I am the me that screams Past all of my dreams, At my reflection Nobody else hears it ‘cause I’m scared to admit, They won’t realize. I continue to block away More and more, day after day And it doesn't help Growing vulnerable, weaker Tying, retying my sneaker, Living with fear another day. -David Rombouts-

Fear Lingers

This is just an insecurity I thought I'd share. Is anybody else afraid of misconception?
