AFRAID
I am afraid
Afraid of telling my story
I don't want to be laughed at
I don't want to renew my long time wounds that have started healing

I know how many years it took me to start healing
I know how painful it was
I know how many times I had bleed
When I tell people my story
The used the same words and sharpen them like swords to pierce me

I don't want to bleed to death again
For ten years now, I have yearned to share my story to the world and with people
I always asked myself, who to tell my story to? Which part of the world should I stand to start?

When attackers are always hungry for a bite of someone's future
I have seen them under my very nose many times
Pretending to be a rose
I am afraid
Extremely afraid to share my story
I wish to be alone until I find someone trustworthy for my story
