I ain't never scared...

I'm scared of snakes. Of being bitten by a snake. Of your words that can be just as hurtful and venomous.

I'm terrified of sharks. That's why I swim close to the shore and keep my knees tucked close to my body.

I'm afraid of scorpions. The ones that look harmless, are the most deadly.

I'm scared of getting too close for eye-contact. I like eye-contact. 

I'm afraid of dancing with people. I'm scared of dancing close to someone because it feels awkward. 

Awkwardness scares me.

I'm terrified of awkward silences. That's why I ramble. I ramble to fill the silence. Though I might not make sense, I ramble.

I'm scared of being insignificant.

I'm scared of the unknown. Of not knowing how something will affect my future. Of the fact that tomorrow never comes.

I'm scared of being left behind. Of being abandoned. Of someone caring about me, and then just dropping me flat. Why shouldn't they? You did. You did it to all of us.
