Life Frightens Me No More (Happy Birthday, Viola)

Knocks on the door,

Shadows on the floor,

A goose on the loose,

Wild and bizarre tattoos,

Life frightens me no more.

_____

Trashes on the floor,

Ghosts in a store,

A murder on the run,

A dangerous and modern gun,

Life frightens me no more.

_____

I know you,

I know what’s true.

I make pies,

I allow you many tries.

Life frightens me no more.

_____

Aliens in a fight,

Darkness at night,

Strangers in the park,

Green eyes in the dark.

Life frightens me no more.

_____

Don’t scare me with wiggly worms,

Don’t force me into panic screams.

Life frightens me no more,

I only have fears in my dreams.
