FearFul

I'm afraid of intimacy. I'm afraid to be vulnerable. I'm afraid you could be the one for me. And I'm afraid I may never know.
I'm afraid of friends and foes alike. I'm afraid of talking. I'm afraid to go anywhere, because they will ask of you.
I'm afraid I've said too much. I'm afraid I've said too little.
I'm afraid to be afraid.
I'm afraid to love again. I'm afraid to never love again. I'm afraid of who I am. Who would want me? Who wouldn't want me?
I'm afraid I may be found. I'm afraid I may be saved. I'm afraid of every night. I'm afraid of every day.
I'm afraid to be lost forever. I'm afraid to lose myself again. I'm afraid I may never return to this solemn satirical atmosphere.
I'm afraid I'm not wanted. I'm afraid to be wanted. I'm afraid of the weakness. I'm afraid of the strength.
I'm afraid I'm not what you think. I'm afraid I'm not what I thought. I'm afraid you are less than I need. I'm afraid you're more than I could dream.
I'm afraid of balance. I'm afraid of each extreme. I'm afraid of where I'm going. I'm afraid to simply be.
I'm afraid of all the rhymes. I'm afraid of emotions conveyed. I'm afraid you may not care. I'm afraid I may drive you insane.
I'm afraid you can never understand. I'm afraid you know all too well. I'm afraid of pain and happiness. I'm afraid of what you think.
I'm afraid of your interpretation. I'm afraid to hear you speak. I'm afraid I've done it in.
I'm too afraid to be afraid.
I'm afraid of what I want, because I'm afraid it doesn't exist.

Powerless Life, Powerless Night

I have never really understood will power. I understand boredom. I think it's a waste of time to think about how boring your imagination is. You're so dull, you can't entertain yourself, but I get it. I've had will power, and I like to think that once you've experienced something, it increases your knowledge of said something. But when I weigh out the benefits of telling yourself what you want, and then sticking to it, it falls short on the scale next to living in the moment. Making crazy, off the wall, out of the blue, stupid decisions is part of being human, it's part of the human experience. I can't understand why people don't want to make bad decisions. It was one of "those days." The kind of emotional girl roller coaster days you'd see in a rom com where the girl is taking turns comforting herself in greasy french fries and Tom Hanks' love stories with whatever her name is with the orgasms, except there were drugs, and it wa...
