It happened again. The coward in me prevailed again. The strength I acted like I had doesn't actually exist, it was just another figment of my imagination. How many times will I abandon others in order to protect myself? I cannot stand the thought of being abandoned so I leave selfishly. I cut all ties off first. It starts with words without any meaning. It then begins to turn into awkward silences that never get filled. Days turn into weeks. Weeks turn into months. Years turn into where did it all go wrong?
