We are cold
The heart pounds
The stomach knots
The cold sweat
The urge to run
The urge to hide
The urge to stay under the duvet
Pretend it’s not there
Pretend we’re out
Run far from here
We fear it
Yet we could embrace it

I do have another reason not to
It’s too hot
It’s too cold
It’s raining too hard
It’s too windy
It’s too far
It’s too hard
It’s too easy
It’s something else
I don’t have time
I don’t know how to
I don’t care
I don’t have the money
I don’t have the skills
I don’t like that
I don’t like this
I do have another reason not to
