Fear comes from longing

The want to be whole

To be normal

To feel loved, accepted,

Like you deserve to live your life.

i have known fear

i live it every day.

The fear of telling my parents

Who i really am

How i really feel.

Who i really love.

i want to be open

i want them to love me

Accept me

Appreciate me

i want to have a girlfriend

To introduce her to my family

To have them love her as much as

i would.
