Gang

Nervous as hell
Gotta find somebody
But who?

What if I let
Them down?
What if I chicken
Out?

Afraid of what
Will happen
What have I
Gotten myself into?

Can I accomplish my
Mission
Need to find at least
One person

Heck, I barley know
Anyone
Need money
Need to learn how
To fight

What if he gets
Hurt?
How is my life
Going to change?

What if I get
Hurt>
What will my
Family say?

Need a weapon
Not "a" weapon but
Multiple weapons

Need to gather
Courage

What if I fail
And back out?
What will he think
Of me then?

What if I
Can't do this?

Scared of what
Could happen, or what
Will happen...

Can't tell nobody.
Nobody...
Can't let them down
Now since
I'm in the gang...

Good work! I can sense the serious tone of this poem well. Being part of a 'gang' and trying to think of ways to get noticed but at the same time feeling scared of the consequences. Well described :) Good job!
