fear

I remember I time where I didn't hesitate to help someone.A time where I didn't want to hurt those I love.I grew stail and hard as the years went by.I let fear decide my choices and actions.

I gave fear a place to stay far bigger than I ever gave hope,I even gave him a workshop.He used the workshop to craft me a mask that resembled a lioness and told me the rules of the mask "don't let any one see under this mask,don't ever let anyone stand too close to you and don't ever take off the mask".He also told me what would happen if I broke any of these rules"if you break any rules the mask will BREAK" he said in a loud voice" and everyone will know that you are nothing but a scared child

So I did as i was told for many years the mask becoming thicker and thicker but I not even noticing it there.
