Afraid Quote by Anonymous
“How should I know what to say, What to do, How to react, When I find out you arent who I thought you were. You arent the mysterious, wonderful being I saw you to be. Instead you should be someone who frightens thee. The only problem is I am not afraid, and that is what truly frightens me. I loved. I fell. I cried. I laughed, Over this being I thought could not be. But now I see, I see things I could not before, and I understand some people Should see things more”
