Poetry Friday - "Afraid"

Sometimes we all hear those voices. But it's harder to remember they can't chase us if we don't run. This is the kind of poem I like to print and post on my mirror. this poem was also written by a teen. Pretty great stuff.

AFRAID

Do you hear the voices
floating through the wind
following me,
they laugh and whisper
as I turn and my hair blows forward
attempting to shield my face.
I’ve yet to realize
they can’t chase me
if I don’t run from them.
