AfraidA Poem by JohannaI don´t want to be afraid.I don't want to be afraid I don't want to let you win I heard about your cutting blade and now fear is sinking in I´ve been telling myself it's all in my mind I don't need these walls to hide behind I don't want to be afraid Fear is your weapon of choice I spoke aloud when I prayed Just to believe my own voice I´m saying God´s words until they become mine Please do not fear I'm with you for all time I don't want to be afraid I'm not, I yell with the youth But my heart would be betrayed Because right now it´s not the truth I´m afraid for my country, I´m afraid for my life The peace I describe you cut through with your knife I don't want to be afraid I won´t show you that I am These waves of terror that you've made Won't break the will of man Even afraid we march with lasting bravery I have love inside that not even death can steal from me I don't want to be afraid and one of these days I won't I see beauty every day Even if you don´t No matter what horrors or weapons you use Trust me in the end you are going to lose © 2015 JohannaReviews
