The Dark
Being scared of the dark has a whole different meaning as an adult. You know how sometimes life feels too big and your soul is getting lost in the threads? You call out and no one answers. The falling into the empty darkness, feverishly looking for any hand to reach out and grab you. The void keeps getting bigger and darker. I'm scared one day I'll fall into the void and will never be able to climb back out. Not because I'm not strong enough but because I can only rely on myself. As a child there's something that the darkness holds that is terrifying but as an adult you realize that the darkness holds nothing and that is even more terrifying.
