FEAR
Afraid to live without a safety net,
afraid to fall in love, afraid of the ache.
Terrified of a life I cannot tame,
too timid to walk beyond the limits,
scared of feeling too deeply in my soul.
That false sense of insecurity,
days spent locked inside a golden cage,
a glass fortress of my own making.
Sheltered from the dangers of living,
wearing so much armor I forgot to live.
In that fear of a broken heart,
so guarded I tiptoed through
a life that frightened me so much.
Fear of being hurt.
Fear of a broken heart.

MIEDO
Miedo a vivir, sin red de seguridad,
temor a enamorarse, miedo a sufrir.
Pánico a no tener domada la vida,
cobardía a sentir la vida sin límites,
miedo a demasiado sentir el alma.
Esa falsa sensación de inseguridad,
días encerrados en la jaula de oro,
cárcel de cristal acorazada de uno.
Protegido de los peligros de vivir,
tantas armaduras que no he vivido.
En ese temor a romper el corazón,
tan blindado que pasé de puntillas.
Por esa vida que daba tanto miedo.
Miedo a romperme el corazón.
