My Fears Poem by Ntsako Manhisa

I won't let anyone to my house
Cuz I'm afraid that thewalls might
Telltale to trespassers about
how I randomly lash out.

I won't let anyone on my bed
Cuz I'm afraid my pillow might
Softy whisper wails of sorrows
I shared with it, last Monday night.

I won't let anyone in my heart
Cuz I'm afraid that they might
Seestitches of my mangled heart
as it slowly deflates blood

I won't let anyone in my shoes
Cuz I'm afraid that they might
Feel the pain I feel on my toes
Which make my journey all blight
