My Conversation With Fear

NinjaGirl

When will you leave me?

Living with you is rather difficult.

I want to be free

 

Trying to kick me out so soon?

I’ve only been here a few years

And I plan to stay until you die.

Where would you be without me?

I’m protecting you, you see?

 

Please

Please please

Just go away

 

Ha! “Go away”

That’s cute.

You think you can tell me what to do?

I’m the one in charge.

You will never be loved.

You will never be safe.

 

That’s not true

I am safe now

WE are safe now

There is no need to be afraid

 

You think we are safe?

I guess I haven’t done a good enough job eh?

Twisted definition you got there mate.

We are anything but safe.

 

No.

Stop that.

You’re lying

 

Lying?

Accusing much.

I’m protecting you.

 

Protecting me how?

All you have given me is a list of mental disorders.

 

My proudest accomplishment.

To think it was all my doing

You should be thanking me

 

Thanking you?!

You’re the reason I’m missing out on things in my life

You’re the reason I can’t trust anyone!

You’re the reason nobody can give me a hug

You’re the reason–

 

I’M the reason why you haven’t been hurt again.

That’s right

You’re welcome

 

Not every person wants to hurt me!

I don’t care what you say

It’s not true

There are still good people out there

 

SHUT UP.

You listen to me.

You do what I say.

I am the one in charge.

 

Not anymore.

 

You can’t do that.

Impossible

To get rid of me?

 

Well I’m going to try.

I’m in charge now.

Fear, you don’t have control in my life anymore

 

NO!

 

Bye-bye!

 

You can try but I will be back.

 

I will beat you every time

You are not stronger than me

I will always win.
