Now is my greatest fear;



The lighting of the sky
The smell of the rain
The sound of the rain
The sound of the leaves wiggling

Was once a good sign, good
Sign of my happiness but
Now has become my fear, fear of losing
Someone, fear of becoming an
Unwanted attention

There was this time, there was
A time I was carefree, innocent
Naive and jolly  I wonder were it is now

I thought that my biggest fear
Is death now I know it is not death
Death for a chance could be easier
The biggest fear is losing someone
Who meant the world

The biggest fear is when you know
Someone is out there who want to hurt
You Really bad, damage you and you
Wish death would come faster before the hurt reaches you.
