We all are so terrified to live entity,
To genuinely be gracious,
To genuinely giggle,
Or howl .

And to pageant the world,
Who we truly are,
But yet, all so awed to die,
We are terrified of unfamiliar,
And loom.

To show our sensitivity, and our repentance,
Anxious of what others might convey,
To our face,
And trailing our back.

What's left to do?

I won't let myself douse,
In the agony of society,
Encompassing me.

I will emerge,
I will emotionally respect,
With every spark,
Of light in me.

I will be the discrepancy.

I have no idea who I'm talking to
When I look in the mirror
to make peace with the words I used
to make things better.
Because although you were smiling
I was screaming for answers
inside my head.
Guilt was my only feeling
When telling you
it was okay
when I was so unsure
of what was to come
And truth be told
I am still so unsure
Of this path we walk
Being someone who so prefers
to be prepared
I am terrified

I've opened up
My heart for you
I've let my guard down
I've let the fragile remains
Of my shattered pieces
Rest in your hands
You hold me so close, so tight
I feel safe
And yet...
I don't want to sound paranoid
I'm sorry
But I'm terrified
I trust you with my life
But I trusted her too
And you hold the result
In your hands

I always push people away
And wanted them back after
I always played cupid to the one I love
Cause I'm afraid he wont accept me
I always feel rejected
Or it was just me?
I'm afraid I'll ended up alone
Cause no one will accept the real me
Save me please
These walls are closing
They're surely hiding

Those demons
The dark
Take my hand and save me please!

Do i have to beg?
I beg
I plead
I scream
Save me
Help me!

I won't make it through the rest of the night
Im shaking.
I'm cold
Im terrified
Im awake

3am and id rather not see this time
Id rather be asleep
Why
Oh why
Does this have to happen to me
I was so peaceful
Now this house is not my home
It is my nightmare

My brain won't stop
I dont want to think
I tried hitting my head but it won't stop thinking
Such horrible things
So scary
I just want to forget
I just want to...
Sleep.
I cant do this. It's too much! Help me before these tears blur not only my vision but my perception of reality

Your love once I felt is the love I won't forget
The little jealousy that you had
The face you look at me when I talk to someone
The hints that you gave to me that we had a chance
But It was skinny love
The love were to shy to admit
Im inlove with you for the first time in my only life and Im terrified without any
reason
It's my fault to make you go away without doing anything
and Im terrified that I might do it again
But this time I meant it
The unexpressed feelings never change
beacause I know were the same  
But these things are tempting me to tell you my feelings
You still give me hints but once I get there
I want to tell you Im ready to love you again but terrified to lose you all over again
The more you hide you feelings the more your heart suffer

Ngayong gabi
Titingin ako sa langit
Para itanong sa mga bituin
Ang mga salitang hindi mo maririnig

Dahil. Punyeta.

Ayaw-- takot na takot--
Akong ika'y mahalin.
R.V.


Tonight
I will look to the stars
To ask them about
The words you'll never hear

Because. *******.

I don't-- I'm terrified--
Of loving you, my dear.

I've found myself lost,
Drifting around in a
Series of complex caverns,
Spinning from one dead end
To another inside the
Terrible length of tunnels
In which I've found myself.
This maze of which I can't escape,
I cannot decide which way to go
I do not know
Which way is out,
And how do I choose,
What way to cruise,
Left or right?
I cannot tell,
Wouldn't someone ring the bell?
Break this spell,
That keeps me dazed,
Unfazed inside my jail,
Which is my mind.
I'm trapped in a bind,
It is now time,
I've not gotten ready,
I'm not prepared,
My legs aren't steady,
My heart is scared.
Where do I want to go or be?
Here or there?

The thought of you makes me sick
I can't function or focus
My heart aches
My legs are weak
Crowded by my thoughts
And all I want is to be left alone
While someone keeps me company

But you can't do that when you're 180 miles away

We fall apart
Say our goodbyes
Through a fuzzy telephone line
I'm left broken but hopeful
Terrified of every option
