and what are we

but prisoners to instinct?

we are the confines of the cell.

all so, so afraid 

why? why must we all be afraid?

fear! fear! fear, the mind killer

no more, please

please

It’s been said

that all emotions

are merely emanations 

of either side of this duality:

love,

or fear.

these are the primary opposites

what else can exist 

but these two?

something that I find so completely and utterly fascinating 

is that FEAR

a biological mechanism designed to stave off death

can be the only thing that prevents us from actually living

fuck it all

I do not want to be afraid anymore

let my love be greater
