I never thought I'd fear them. I never believed I would become so weak and so powerless.
She terrifies me... She's been speaking a lot, wishing a lot to be alone forever. It isn't like this is new, but it isn't ancient either. It's a craving and a sorrow she's holding. It's surfaced about a year ago, and I had hoped it would go away. It hasn't and now she's wishing she was dead.
And I'm terrified. I'm not scared of death, I'm not even scared of being alone.
But she says she doesn't want anyone anymore, no one except for me that is. To be alone together, and forget about everything else. She isn't insane, I am. And I am also afraid.
She wants to give up she says. She wants to go far far away she says.
I try and laugh and shrug it off, but I'm afraid that she is beginning to really mean it.
I'm fearful and I'm sad, sad she feels that way, and sad that I'm the reciever of her love. I'm hers, she isn't mine, and if she really willed it, I know I would have to follow her. I don't have te strength to say no. Because I'm afraid.
She's denying everything, reclusing and I see her fire dying and it's painful to watch because there is nothing I can do for her. Always negotiating, never moving forwards.
This isn't going to go away, and when she asks me I don't know what I will say. Maybe I won't say anything, I'll only shut myself away from her and we'll both die slowly but not in eachother's comfort because people are born into this world alone... and they die alone.
