Forever We Fear
Age 2: Loud noises
Age 4: Monsters and ghosts
Age 8: My math teacher
Age 10:The tallest roller coaster
Age 12: Public Speaking
Age 16:
Well that’s a big question,
there’s a lot.
We grow up.
We are afraid for the same reasons.
We are afraid, we pretend we aren’t.
The unknown
Our imaginations
The powerful
Risk
Loneliness
Age 16: The real world.
We are afraid, we pretend we aren’t
We are afraid for the same reason
We grow up.
And when we grow up we realize,
We have the strength inside us
that our parents always posessed
At age 2 they held our hands
Age 8 they stood up for us
Age 12 they encouraged us
We are afraid, we pretend we aren’t
We are afraid for the same reason
We grow up.
We overcome our fears.
