Feelings too familiar
I know this feeling, it's a familiar one.
Scary, and it has me freaking out.
That feeling when you're falling and you don't want to. When you realize your problem in life is that you've always cared too much, so much it's gotten you in trouble.
Because you're loyal, faithful, loving, caring...you have high expectations.
So high, you expect those qualities in others...
It's not until you're in far too deep do you realize that they may not have those.
And you get hurt.
Living life means being vulnerable, which means you gotta let go sometimes.
You can't control everything.
You need faith, enough to let you live, enough to let you love.
One day, and I pray with all I have that I'm not lying to you, someone will prove you wrong.
They will be different, worth the fight.
And they will surprise you because they will be just what you've always expected for yourself. And high standards will pay off.
In the meantime..
Don't get too scared to push forward, to move on with life, to live without regrets and to never hold back.
Be a free spirit and give it everything you've got.
Because one day it'll be enough, the pain and fear will die away.
"Fate loves the fearless."-James Russell Lowell
