Scared

I'm afraid of waking up one day
Wondering how I came to be here
Remembering I had different thoughts on someday
Then and wishing I could just disappear

I'm afraid of losing hope along the way
Of giving up and falling too fast
Afraid of everything people might say
If I were to race and finish last

People say I'm just too bold
But they don't know I'm afraid to try
To guide the plane that holds
My destiny across the open sky

I want to stay this way forever
Full of promise, hopes and dreams
I'm scared of what the future brings
Being a failure is so inevitable it seems

so beautifully written, apsara

just remember to hold onto those hopes and dreams and I promise you that you  will never be alone in your feelings...no matter what the age, life is a road  filled with joys and sorrows and learning how to accept each...to make the next more promising

Welcome to Passions! I'm so glad that you decided to join our "family"!

This is a very well-written poem. Everyone feels like this sometimes, especally as a teen. You describe the feeling well. Although it may seem as if you must fail, you do have the power to succeed. I hope you realize that. Keep up the great work!

First of all, WELCOME TO PASSIONS!!!

How can you say that you are bound to fail?  You can be whoever you want to be.  keep that in mind.

"Afraid of everything people might say
If I were to race and finish last"

What is there to be afraid of.  You should be proud to finish at all.  Some people don't even get to finish.  So, pick yourself up from the ground and carry your head up high

Thanks for the read. keep sharing
