The fear of emotion
Intensity and confusion
They swirl around all the time
But my heart flutters and almost stops
Hearing that voice puts me in a pause
What do I say next?
What should I ask?
My mind is in a flurry
Thoughts so unlike me arise
Why could I not stay stone
Unmoving and unfeeling?
But I know it will fade,
Just like everything else.
I wish that presence would leave
Not make me hope
Not make me think of a future
I want normal, no adventures
No heartbreak!
Leave me alone, stay away
Help me.

The idea of love haunts you, taunting you, even in your sleep. You'd rather play alone, wearing loneliness beneath your clothes...keeping your emotions at arms length. Very Good Write Jennifer! ! ! -Kelly.
