Philophobia-The fear of falling in love.
The reality is, love is a beautiful thing. It's butterflies and sunshine, but it can also be dark and lonely nights spent alone. Why do we love if there is the possibility of being hurt? Trust. We trust the person. We know that there is the possibility of the person throwing our heart, and shattering it into a million pieces, but trust that they won't. We are afraid of the hurt that comes after the happy. Reality sucks. We get hurt. I've gotten hurt. I wouldn't go as far to say that I have philophobia. This is me talking about the happy, the hurt and everything in between.
Here-a compliation of my thoughts in the form of my art. Enjoy.

Live, Laugh, Love [COMPLETE/PUBLISHED]
When I thought that I had stopped living, you made me laugh. When I thought I had stopped living, you taught me how to love. You taught me how to live. How to laugh. How to Love. // Most people have phobias or at least have a fear of something. Whether it is spiders, snakes, heights, or enclosed places, no one expected anyone to be afraid of what she is afraid of. Ophelia Lockhart lives her life alone because she is scared of attachment, specifically emotional attachment. Or in a lack of better terms, she is scared of falling in love. The last place that she thought she would end up was in a therapist's office, but that isn't what saves her. One person changes everything that she has ever believed. Will she learn how to live again? Will she learn how to love? Or will her fears get the best of her?Complete
Philophobia
|| Philophobia. Its name comes from two Greek roots, "philo" meaning love and "phobia" meaning fear of. The fear of love. || "I think i was 9 or 10. And i would watch from the stairs and-and the concept of getting close to anyone...it petrifies me." "Why?" "Because I never want to be vulnerable." His voice became colder. "I never want to be taken advantage of." "Who says everyone will?" The man retaliated. "I like my own tent. I don't want people to come inside and mess everything up." "But what if someone climbed into your tent and cleaned it up for you?" He asked again." xxComplete

Poems To Him
I once loved this boy, the feelings were intoxicating. It took over. I was being tortured by this unrequited love I felt for almost two years. This is my journey of figuring out how to live with it. "Summary": Hurt me, beat me, with the violence of words, and I will explode But maybe it hurts for a reason I want to hurt him I am me because of him Maybe I need the pain to live The only thing I know is that I'm dying Now I have to live with the consequences of the things he did(n't) do He'll hurt me no matter what he does Maybe hell and heaven are the same thing, but I choose to die his way We would be perfectly flawed and unperfectly flawless together, if only he could love me once But darling, I have a fear of falling apart This is a cry for help I'm crashing Fight for me, fight against me, fight against him But isn't it fear that keeps me alive also? I don't hurt anymore I am in so much pain I am a disaster waiting to happen I'm not afraid to die A lot of love to give, and no love gotten I love the things that kill me, and kill the things that love me It hurts to love him, but you can love someone without loving yourself, in that destructive kind of wayComplete
