"I never really knew the meaning of  fear.
- Until I saw the way you looked at her."

I never feared death, nor oblivion.
But then I never knew I'd fear something so simple. 




As I sat in one corner, silent but filled with dismay, my eyes scanned every inch of her image, jealousy written all over my face. 

She was beautiful, with perfect dark hair that fell to her back, eyes that all woman would envy, and that kind of smile any guy would kill for. Her fair skin with no sign of flaw, her perfect body, and her charms.

Everything that I am not. 

As my eyes turned to you, I felt a sting in my chest. You were looking straight at her. You were even too busy to notice I was in the same room with you. 

I tried to hide this feeling, although the water in my eyes showed it all. Slowly, I try to close my eyes, as a teardrop ran through my cheeks.

I closed my eyes suddenly wishing to never saw it after all.
I never knew the true meaning of fear. Until she came along.

Jealousy, insecurities and fear of losing you mixed inside of me. It was that painful I felt burning in my heart. 

I've never been so afraid in my life.
Until now, I guess.
