Your fear of betrayal

the fear of tripping and getting bruised

of being used and having to lie

broken amid the pieces of your sanity

amongst the overwhelming confusion of the

why did it happen to me's

and the how could he's.

The fear causes you to shy at chances

to shy from the pain at which your soul still cries.

The violation of mind and body

that colors your view of others

and makes you doubt your own self worth

makes you deny your own beauty.

The pain you wish to feel to drowned out

the pain that life and self loathing have placed upon you

placed within you.

Yet amid all the darkness

your heart and soul shine like beacons in the night

struggling to keep you from despairs hold.

Your desire to move on

the frenzy that drives you to achieve greatness

the feeling that those around you are but weights

holding you still

dragging you down.

The fear that grips you at times

that chokes you

of falling short

of failing altogether

and never escaping the small pond you've outgrown.
