Fear used to be about spankings and being alone at night
Then it turned into skinned knees and mosquito bites
After that it was the flu and getting kidnapped
Next it was boys, cats, and girl fights
Slowly it became bullies and rejection, and the thought of having to start again
When i was 3 i was afraid of spiders
When i was 5 i was scared of scooby-doo
At 8 i was afraid of not being perfect
At 10 i was afraid of double digit numbers
At 12 i was afraid of blood
At 15 it was losing someone close to me
17 and I'm still afraid of spiders
Why didn't anyone warn me about homework
Why didn't anyone warn me about boys
What were you thinking when you told me to go upstairs
You knew i would come back down
What about that time we all almost died
I am never ever ever going camping again
Who gave you the right to decide who i do respect and don't respect
Who said you could choose my hair color and the words i use
I don't need you to tell me how to dress, We don't all have to look like pioneers
I can drink caffeine if i feel like it
Tell me how to live my life one more time and i swear ill become a democrat
And don't you dare disrespect my President
I'm scared that you might see this
I'm worried your going to disown me when i become a democrat
I fear the day that i do something i swear i would never do, just like you
I'm already nervous about my wedding day
This is not ending how it was supposed to
I'm still terrified of spiders
This is partly why I hate living here. You shouldn't have I be scared of taking a different path then your parents took and it's fucked up for your parents to think they control you or that their opinion is what's best for you.

Keep thinking for yourself. Keep following your own heart, your own arrow.

DeleteI have very different beliefs than my family and I can't get the courage to be open about it.
