You strike fear into me. Worse than anything I’ve ever known. Even when I've lived my entire life being led through nothing but fear, this is what cripples me. It rips my soul from my body, so I’m left as a shell with no memory of who I was or how to go through whatever life is supposed to be. And yet I stay. When other people tell me to go, I stay. I stay because I don't want to leave. Because as much as you scare me, you also love me. And I can’t let go of that. Not when I love you too.
