Afraid Poem by MNSRAlyssa Bii
Afraid
When I wake up, I have this fear
I fear that I might not belong here
As I get out of bed, I feel like as if the whole world hates me
As if it wants me to drown myself in the sea
When I see my parents, I feel like as if they're secretly disappointed
I fear that they think of me as a portrait that was badly painted
Whenever my friends talk to me
I fear that they just want to flee
I'm afraid that I will lose everything I love
That I will just be left behind while everyone is above
I'm afraid that my friends will just forget about my existence
I fear that my teachers will call me a dunce.
Out of all the things I'm afraid off, the one thing I fear the most
Is being thought of as a ghost.
Written in all honestly of whats the true human behaviour and its unaccounted fears.... (Y)

Hi Alyssa, I tend to read this poem, connecting it with your poem, Abused, which I have just read. The lack of confidence in a child to face the world. Her fear of losing everything she loves, treasures and hopes to to retain for life- these emotions have been captured so truthfully in the poem that the poet (though a little girl) is able to speak directly to the hearts of the readers. Fantastic poem. Do continue to write and share.10+
