I have fear
Of this thing
That is eating at me inside.
I don't know what to do.
I'm supposed to be too old to cry,
But that is what I feel like doing.

How am I supposed to react,
Like a calm person so full of faith
That nothing matters?

I seem to be betrayed by my friends.
They go on with their life as if this
doesn't matter to them.
They mutter sympathy, of course.
But, in the end
They're glad it's not them.

I hate to crawl into my shell again, but to protect
my feelings, I may have to.

Fear can be pretty powerful. Its crazy what happens when you hold your gut and do it. Nice poem.
