Afraid Poem by sami girl

I’m afraid to close my eyes
And venture into the darkness that’s near
I see the monsters lurking
They smell my fear

I’m afraid to fall asleep
And leave my mind unbound
Afraid of what I’ll find
And of what I’ve found

My life’s questions
Played out for me to see
I’m hiding from the truth
Afraid of what the answers will be

I hide my fears
Deep in my mind
Afraid to explore them
And see what I find

My worries haunt me
In my restless doze
They never stop
My spiteful foes

When I open my eyes
My heart is racing
I remember my fears
And the foes I’m facing
