I'm a coward
Scared and lost in a web of uncertainty
And like a blanket of doubt, I wrap myself around you
And you're a coward too,
Tumbling helplessly along
Pulled by the current of life
Clinging, trembling, afraid;
Chicken.
Flashing eyes, your eyes, cut through shades of gray haze
The haze of defining terror.
You shine a harsh light
Making everything so clear.
I huddle away
I'm a coward.
Your hand is out
But I can't take it;
Such a coward, so afraid
I watch you move away
Ever forward, the gray coming toward you and your light forces it back
And I'm too scared to follow.
Small, useless, idiot I am;
Call me a coward.
