All this time we've just been ashamed. It's unspoken that we are afraid but that means we are unknowing what we are frightened of. I can barely stand and yet I have got to support you somehow. When there's no one else around, I'm here. If you can't find them, I'll find you.
What is it that consumes us? Fear of fear itself, I fear. I'm scared of losing you. I'm selfish, you see. I need your company and your warmth and to sit beside you and know that you are listening. And this selfish desire holds me here. I will watch out for you so that I can keep you safe for myself.
Darling, don't leave me.
