Poetry

I wonder what it's like
To not have any fear
To not ever be sad
To never shed a tear

I wonder what it's like
To not shake inside
To not be silent in public
To not have to hide

I wonder what it's like
To not check under the bed
To not be afraid of the things
That are inside of your head

I wonder what it's like
To talk without being scared
Of messing up your words
Or laughing with teeth bared

I wonder what it's like
But I may never know
Because I'm messed up inside
Though I try not to show.
