I am a coward
Like a child swinging a punch in the air with my eyes closed.
Like a dog barking out of fear.
I'm a coward
I'm always scared
Everything unfamiliar feels strange
Everything strange becomes scary
And what's scary becomes bad
So what's unfamiliar becomes something scary, I must avoid.
I'm scared again..
That I'll look unfamiliar to others
Strange to others
So I'm desperately trying to be like everyone else
I'm scared again..
That someone will get hurt by the punch I throw when my eyes closed
And I'm scared that I might not be the good person that I think I am
