Afraid/I Wish

I am afraid that the world's going to end. I wish I wasn't so tired. I am afraid of spiders. I wish I had a house, a mansion maybe. I am afraid of my future. I wish I had my children. I am afraid of using. I wish I could have more time. I am afraid of being lost in addiction. I wish I had more sleep. I am afraid of what my children thought. I wish I could lose weight. I am afraid of not having money.
