#resistant
*I confess that I fear everything, & coming out of my shell is yet to find! Dear fears, I wish you could go for a vacation away from me! with you I am hesitant as well as resistant all the time. I don't know how to explain. I wish I could let go of all of them And do everything I ever wanted to do. Thoughts keeps running across my mind figuring no way out except thinking. And my time is flowing fast enough... I wish there was somebody to push me from the cliff so that I could actually start living.. But, I get it, there is nobody except me I have to push myself Not for others but for myself. I don't want to change for other but for myself..*

Dear fear
We both knew I wasn't a safe choice. I tried to warn you of the way I built myself to be alone, To be resistant to a changing heart and cynical about romantic love. You knew I was a bad idea when I couldn't keep a straight face when you asked me seriously how I felt about you. Why did you ask me how I felt about you? You should have known I wasn't like that anymore. You knew that what I fear most in the world is being attached. Please don't get attached. Why did you get attached? We even made jokes of the way I'd never tell you that I liked you, even when you'd say it all the time. You saw the risk I posed to you, yet all you knew was that you liked the way I looked in shorts and the way I liked beer and being loud as much as you did, And how I liked to kiss to City & Colour and the way I made you feel when I awed in your music. You shouldn't have believed me when I said I wanted to be with you. Not because I didn't want to, But because you know how I change my mind.
