Now that you've been with me for a bit, you've seen just about every part of me. The frustration that comes from just about everybody The depression that rots inside of my mind, no matter how much I write or how much in peace with life I am The anxiety that takes over me, no matter the dosage of medication nor breathing that helps long-term You've seen me be a mess and that is why I'm so afraid. I'm afraid that you've seen me in these ways, especially in my vulnerability, you've seen me want you I've told you I love you I'm afraid now that you know these things.. you'll leave me Because honestly, these parts of me.. my anxiety especially My mental need to want to be with you at all times Especially each night.. Is what I've been trying to hide from the beginning. I'm scared. I get so scared. I want to be someone you choose, and someone you'll eventually love. Not someone who bothers you constantly, nor someone who distracts you from your passion. I'm learning TJ and I see my faults.. please bear with me. But most importantly, please don't leave me.
