I fear the things my heart chases because they might not be good for me. I fear the things my body chases because they might **** me. I fear the things my mind chases because I might lose my will to feel. I might be afraid of the fear that surrounds me suddenly like an ocean. Or even like a prisoner in a tightly wound rope in a dingy cell.
I fear the words I write right now for they might define me. What if I was the wind? What if I changed? How dare my words become my only identity? I am more. I am more.
Yet, I am so little. So small. So insignificant. A speck, a drop, a freckle, an atom, a cog in the wheel.
I am alone. But, I am not the only one.
