SO FRIGHTENING
Since he left, my life has felt so empty. I felt that without him I could no longer live. All my thoughts were of him, I refused to let anyone help. I know why he left, it was because of me. Because every time he got near, I pushed him away. I was scared to let him get too close to my heart. It may sound foolish, but it's true. I was scared to death--scared of being hurt again. The scars from old wounds were so deep that all the love in the world could not heal them. He didn't know about my hurt. With another, I hope I won't be so frightened...
