Closed Book

I tend to be a closed book.

I don't like to show others my feelings.

If i do I know they will have power over me.

I'm afraid of rejection.

I know I shouldn't be but I am.

I worry what others will think and say.

Fear controls my life.

I like to tell others I don't care but I do.

I share some feelings with people but never too many.

I feel like the world is against my goals sometimes.

But it's really only myself.

I believe God is the leader of my life.

And I shall not have fear one day. 

But fear controls me.
