No Where Near Fearless

Why do you hate me so much?

I try but it is just not enough

We never just talk

We get into a fight

Then you are gone all night

You come back in the morning

Covered with blood

Cut, scratches, bruises

You never tell me how you got them

I try to talk to you but you brush me off

You say you're fine

But you have cleverly crossed the line

You're shouting again

There is just no end

You think I am judging you

You think that

I think you are no good

The argument is going too fast for me to keep up

You are calling me fearless leader now

I just calm down

You stop shouting

You're looking at me now

I open my mouth

I don't shout

Don't call me fearless

I say simple and plain

You raise your voice a little

And say

Why you are fearless

I look you in the eyes and say

I am not fearless because

Today and every day you go out

I am so scared that you will not come back

You looked shocked you are not saying a word

So I continue

So you can call me what you want

Just don't call me fearless because

I am nowhere near fearless

I walk away

You're still standing there

Shocked
