Trophies

One thing I'm for sure afraid of is the pedestal. I'm afraid of being mounted and put on display for everyone else to spectate. I'm afraid of being boxed in  by unattainable standards of others. I'm afraid that one day, when you realize that I'm nothing like you imagined I'd be, you'll walk away. I'm afraid that when you realize that I'm just as flawed and unsure as anyone else, you're desire for me will cease. I'm afraid that I will no longer be of value to you. I'm afraid of being a trophy.

I wanted you to be different. I wanted you to actually see me for me and still want to be around. I just wanted it to be real.
