I’m scared to take a look,
because they will laugh at me.

I’m scared to stand on that bridge,
because someone might see me.

I’m scared to dream,
because they’ll find it childish.

I’m scared to wear dresses,
because some people might laugh at me.

I’m scared to jump and take risks,
because someone will stand on the sideline and think I’m an idiot.

I’m scared to be myself, whoever that is,
because people might not like me for me.

I’m scared to live life,
because they might laugh for not living it like I should.

I’m scared to let go and just do it,
because I might fall and there will probably be no one to catch me.

I’m scared to love,
because that someone might not love me back.

I’m scared to talk,
because I might say the wrong words and make a complete fool of myself.

I just wish things were different,
because someone has been making fun of me this whole time.

I’m scared to be saved,
because … that someone might turn my world upside down,
I will lose all my fears and I will have to try to make something of my life.

Truth is, we all need to be saved now and then.
I have never felt how it’s like to be saved before.
So if you read this and you’re not scared, please try.

I hope you succeed.
