Can I count on you?
Can I count on you?
Will you be here when I need you?
Or you will just leave me and take off?
Are you going to help me like I helped you before?
I have been around longer than you have
I seen too much off life, the good things and the bad things
I have an Inner voice that speaks to me
When I don’t listened to it, I feel bad, and I know that it is a warning that something bad could happen to me
Sometimes I run away from a bad situation because I am afraid to face It
I am coward,
Sometimes I am afraid of my own shadow
And I ask my self who am I?
Why I am so afraid?
Because it is normal to be afraid and I am human
