Today I'm Afraid

Today I am afraid 
For today my life 
Lies in the hands of people 
Who see me as a monster 
A destroyer 

Today I am afraid 
For the day I finally can stand 
My legs will be broken 
By people 
Stronger and more powerful than me 

And in a week 
My life will lie in the hands 
Of the people 
Who hate me 
Just to spread 
The hate in their hearts
