I fear. I fear that one day I'll say something, I fear that one day you'll see something, I fear that one day I will do something⦠I fear there will come a moment when I give you a reason to leave. I fear that you will become bored of me. I fear that despite what you think of me now, a day will come when the mist will be cleared away. I fear that this fear is what will assure our undoing. I fear that my fear will be the reason you leave. I fear this.
I fear I will become nothing more than a face in the crowd and a name easily forgotten. I fear that I will fall victim to my mind again and there will be nothing I can do to stop it. I fear this not because it has happened before, but because I care. I fear this because I care. I care because it's worth the fear. I care because I can tell that you are someone I want to be around. I care because there is a connection to you I feel that is almost chemical. I care because it's who I am. I care because of who you are. I care. And that is why I fear.
