inhale

i do this thing a lot
where i imagine an impossible scenario

a prince in a nice suit
a goddess in a flowy gown

waiting to whisk me away

but the truth is
i'd rather it play out in my mind than risk being vulnerable with another person because the sheer thought of intimacy shakes me to my core in a very anxious way and im not sure that anyone will ever love me because of my unwillingness to feel or express my emotions.
