Am Afraid by JAKEMOND1(op):
I am afraid…
I am so afraid…
Even the shadow of mine that follows me around like a robot frightens me..
I am afraid …I am afraid.
Why is my life a mirage?
Full of illusions and false hopes…. illusions borne out of frustration
Frustration meted willing by those who protects..
Hopes that disappear whenever I get close…I am afraid.
Hopes which only exist to appease their blood thirst and allow them to bash in their vain glory...I am afraid
Glory glory, the dreaded word..the word which eludes the poor..the poor who is doomed by fate..
Fate the phantom companion of the poor..fate the false consolation of the poor.. I am afread
