PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

i have fears

that i'm too scared to talk about

some have to do with traveling roads

or how it's too late to travel those roads

or on crowded streets

where no one knows my name, or my face

those strangers can't love me

can't love me with all my insecurities and flaws and weird things that travel the spans of my brain on a nightly basis

that man on the street

i'll make him wonder why he ever got entangled in the complicated web that is unfortunately me
