Im Doing This Now Poem by Stephanie Fleharty

I’m afraid to love you
I’m afraid to leave you
I’m afraid to hurt you

So, I’m hurting myself

I’m scared of your sweet words
I’m scared of your soft touch
I’m scared of your love

So I’m not loving myself

I cutting you out
I’m cutting myself down
I’m cutting you away

So, I’m cutting myself now

I’m depressed I need you here
I’m depressed don’t come near
I’m depressed I need anyone here

So I’m hiding myself now
