I'm afraid...
23 months ago
of people hurting me
of myself, of my needs, of my dreams
of accomplishing things
of making the most of what I have
of reaching out to others
of loneliness
of being rejected once more
of meeting inadequate people once more
of losing my family
of falling ill
of having an accident
of facing people
of being happy
of taking care of myself
of deeming my life important to me
of truly living
of not waiting day by day for death to come
These are the fears haunting me. These are the fears I have to overcome.
