Scared

[Lily]

By Cheryl McIntyre
Scared
Everyday we are scared

Scared of waking
Scared of leaving home

Scared of driving and of walking
Scared of eating and of being sick

Scared of being hurt and
Of dying

Everyday we are scared
Scared of living and

Of having children
Scared of being alone and

Of being married
Everyday we are scared

Scared of something
Everyone--everyday

Scared is good
It shows our feelings

Being scared is okay--
For everyone

Everyday we are scared
