Sometimes I feel as though
The world is outpacing me
My friends are going somewhere else
Somewhere far away
That I’m going to be the only one left
I can’t tell if I’m lying to myself
Or just exceedingly honest
To the point where I seem to already know
To know the truth behind who I am
I don’t dream like them
I don’t believe in the future
And I don’t hope
I want to be like them
Because I’m afraid
That the world will outpace me
That my friends will leave me
That I’m going to be the only one left
Yes, I’m afraid of many things
But most of all,
I’m afraid of being honest
