Was I lying when they asked me if i was scared?
Yes I was scared Everything I'm afraid of starving I'm afraid of being without shelter I'm afraid of not adapting I'm afraid of not succeeding I'm afraid of loneliness These four things are what defines my life Your life Everyone's life Why we don't feel it is the cause The journey The sheer distraction of tasks and happenings That bring us the dear pleasure of belief That someday We'll make it towards the horizon A transition towards the next step of our journey The world unknown Experiences waiting for us Fulfillment Living is the escape of fear When we stand still We are retreating Entropy of darkness will begin to consume us Then comes that one person during the journey That tells us they'll walk by our side To share our fears To share this burden You will be uncertain You will be confused You will resent each other But your hands will still be held tight And every time you realize that fact Your heart will discover someone is there You're still scared but not so much anymore You trot on Year After year Til the daybreak And once you look back how far you've gone You wonder how you made that distance Was it because of her? Or was it just the little strength you had It doesn't matter in the end The journey goes on The fears persist With or without her We all will find a fitting ending to our story No matter how brief Or how long winded and painful You've shared your life with someone You've lived That's all that matters. Our little insignificant melodramatic life |
