Afraid

We were in love,

We were in love,

You and I

We weren’t perfect,

We had our differences,

Our fair share of awkwardness

But we were in love.

--

But I guess the best things never last.

Because you left.

You just walked out the door

And now I’m afraid.

Afraid to love.

Afraid of the good things.

--

I’m afraid to stray

Afraid to stay

Afraid to trust

Afraid to believe

Afraid to leave the sidewalk

And venture out into the road.
