Excellence Award in the 'Spread The Word 2017' competition

I'm just scared,
I have cried too many tears.
Just a lost soul Wanting to be protected and cared.
I faced in headstrong,
But fell on my knees.
Clashed in wall. Blinded to see.
I faced in headstrong
But no one hears; I'm screaming red,
Lost in my world of fears.
Is nobody seeing; my despair and pain.
I wasn't headstrong,
Too weak too fearful, to make a change.
