So Scared

I am so scared.
I don’t know how,
to ease this frightening fear.
I just want someone to be there.
Someone to tell me,
It’s all right.
I know that it’s not.
But that’s what I need.
To keep me from
feelings so scared.

I need someone
to hold me, and cry
with me.
Tell me that things
will get better.
That I will not always
be this scared.
That there is
"Light at the end of the Tunnel."
I hate feeling so scared.
But I hate feeling alone,
so much more.

Is asking for someone,
to tell me not to be so scared,
too much to ask for?
Am I being selfish?
I hope not.
Because, I am scared enough,
as it is.
