What are you afraid of?

It's so easy to lie to that question. But I don't like lying, so instead I avoid. "Oh, you know...stuff. *Followed by a conspicuous change of subject* "  Yeah, not one of my more brilliant moments but the point remains the same, it's a difficult question to ask yourself, let alone answer.


I think it's difficult because it requires understanding and accepting yourself, no matter how fragile you are. And that means acknowledging your weaknesses.
So here's your answer. Even if it's too little, too late. Even if it probably not all of my fears, because I'm not completely aware of them.


It may only be the truth but it's all I have.. So I hope that means something.
I'm afraid of injections because I don't like being forced into things.
I'm afraid of death because I don't know what it is.
I'm afraid of not embracing life because I don't want to waste a moment.
I'm afraid of letting my guard down because when you care you get hurt.
I'm afraid of being totally honest because when you leave yourself so exposed who knows what you'll think.
I'm afraid of love because it can't be controlled.
