I'm scared.
Scared of the past.
Scared that I've done
something so wrong,
that someone will look back and
turn me away.

I'm scared.
Scared of the present.
Scared that I'll make
a fatal error.
That no one can
fix and that will
hurt others.

I'm scared.
Scared of the future.
Scared of that which lies ahead.
That I am a no one
and won't deserve to
enter the real world,
and show the little I've got.

I'm scared.
But I'm also brave.
