I’m Not Afraid

Cheyenne Smith

I’m not afraid, I’m not afraid of feelings of hate, hurt & despair

the hope, trust & kindness I dish is my largest flaw and my biggest fear

Others feel hope by using a form of prayer

Though I have no religion which gives me less promise, instead I listen to the dark thoughts in my ear

 

The hope I have isn’t often inside of me, it’s the hope of other people

I feel like I wasted my hope, trust and kindness on humanity

I was too oblivious to the planet that I couldn’t see evil

In fact my ambition still somewhat lies in others so I guess you could say that’s insanity

 

I did believe there was more bad than good but I have finally learnt its vice versa

My friends proved that I’m often over-kind

I just wish that the planet got on with every country universal

My past experiences taught me that I was oh so blind

 

I thank my friends for giving me a better vision

For it helps that I now know that more people are an enemy than they are a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow

For me, each contrast in the world causes a massive collision

The malice in this world leaves a gigantic hole like that of a volcano

I need to stop looking at the world with such ambition.
