My Many Fears

One of my many fears,

is to find a stranger

in someone I have

known for years.

To one day realize,

the person next to me,

isn't someone

I should idealize.

To wake up from a dream,

only to find out

the people next to me,

are not what they seem.

One of my many fears,

is to trust someone,

only to wake up,

into the nightmares.

To look in the eyes

of someone familiar,

and find an unfathomable stare,

giving away the disguise.

To take a leap of faith,

and come crashing down,

falling into an abyss.

never again feeling safe.

To have my heart, broken

into tiny little pieces,

by the words

that were left unspoken.

One of my many fears,

is not being able

to pick up the pieces left behind

after, the dust of hurt clears.
