Rejection.

What are we so afraid of?

Rejection.

Afraid of wanting, but not being wanted

Afraid of loving, but not being loved

Afraid of feeling, but not being felt

Afraid of asking and being denied

Why do we stay inside of our cages?

Rejection.

Have a look at my cage...

It's the one with the open door.

I rejected it.
