the fear of being alone
stems from childhood
being the youngest
of cousins twice my age
the race to catch up
but always falling short
the fear of being alone
stems from my broken heart
of wondering what i did wrong
if i was not good enough
the dark nights, fruitless nights
and paranoia ebbed in my mind
the fear of being alone
stems from moving
having to start anew
across the state, a couple years apart
because introverted me
always hated that moving truck
the fear of being alone
stems from myself
the working feelings of no one accepting
no one trusting the real me
who finds comfort is isolation
whose anxiety stops her from interactions
the one with too much emotional baggage
it weighs everyone down around her
the fear of being alone
is what continues me to be alone
