Wake up

I'm afraid one day you'll wake up.
That one day you'll just wake up one morning and see me as I really am.
You will see me how I see me.
All my stretch marks.
My skin.
How messy my hair is.
You will think about all the things I have done, and all the things I havent done.
Then you realize you dont love me anymore.
I'm afraid when you leave you'll realize you like being on your own more than you like being with me.
I'm afraid I wont be needed anymore.
I was so hesitant in giving you my heart.
I was never very good at sharing, and now you have all of me.
The most important parts of me are in your care.
All I have is trust.
I trust you to take care of them.
I trust that you mean the things you say, and I trust you will keep the promises you have made....
But will that be enough?
I am afraid.
So afraid.
