Fears

We really are never afraid of heights;
we are afraid of falling.
We aren't afraid of people leaving;
we are afraid of being left behind.
We don't fear loving;
we fear being not loved back.

And that truly, has made sense to me.
We are afraid of the possibilities of the future,
not the realms of the present.
