I fear a lot of things, I fear loss, I fear love, I fear being alone. The last one is what I fear the most. Sometimes I hate playing the question and answer portions I have with a friend since I do often reveal myself and somehow, I fear it as well. I love to know the people but with this Q&A portion, I feel that I never get to have the right answers to all the questions.
I fear dying alone and living alone. Alone with no one else to care for, with no one else to think about. I believe in the power of God and that he is still wrapping his gift for me and I am hoping that I can be a gift to someone else too. Somewhere, someday, I know that he will come. Though at times I lose hope and fear for myself. But I don’t want fear to take over me. I want to just stay happy and be happy with everthing and everyone around me. I want to cherish everyday with my family and my friends and myself. I want to have fun. I know I cannot ask my family for a lot of things. I need to live on my own. I know that my friends can’t always be with me to cheer me up when I’m down but I know they’re always there. I know that I have to be responsible for all the things that I do and think of but sometimes it’s just too confusing. I can be an angel or a devil but I choose to be human. I choose to feel pain and be hurt. Though I run when it gets too tough to handle. I hide when I’m too scared to face the truth and I mask myself with everything else when tears are about to fall. I used to be a very good actress. A great pretender. A mime. A blank face in a crowd. A shadow under the sun. I can be anything they ask of me but they will never feel my pain. Silent in a screaming crowd, yet still present in every way. Somehow, aware of what’s going on around but not with the feelings within. Not conscious when all around me are ‘all-smiles’. Happiness. Contentment. That’s what I wanted as well. But the most that I long for is to be loved and cared for. I often wish for a fairytale story. For a knight or prince. For a palace in the sky. These things are not important though, as what I trully long for is much simpler than that. Something very simple indeed.
