Was I lying when they asked me if i was scared?
Yes
I was scared
Everything
I'm afraid of starving
I'm afraid of being without shelter
I'm afraid of not adapting
I'm afraid of not succeeding
I'm afraid of loneliness
These four things are what defines my life
Your life
Everyone's life
Why we don't feel it is the cause
The journey
The sheer distraction of tasks and happenings
That bring us the dear pleasure of belief
That someday
We'll make it towards the horizon
A transition towards the next step of our journey
The world unknown
Experiences waiting for us
Fulfillment
Living is the escape of fear
When we stand still
We are retreating
Entropy of darkness will begin to consume us
Then comes that one person during the journey
That tells us they'll walk by our side
To share our fears
To share this burden
You will be uncertain
You will be confused
You will resent each other
But your hands will still be held tight
And every time you realize that fact
Your heart will discover someone is there
You're still scared but not so much anymore
You trot on
Year
After year
Til the daybreak
And once you look back how far you've gone
You wonder how you made that distance
Was it because of her?
Or was it just the little strength you had
It doesn't matter in the end
The journey goes on
The fears persist
With or without her
We all will find a fitting ending to our story
No matter how brief
Or how long winded and painful
You've shared your life with someone
You've lived
That's all that matters.
Our little insignificant melodramatic life
