In Darkness and in Solitude

[now-or--never]

You know what one of my biggest fears is? It's That the people I consider the closest will one day see I'm not really worth it. That they'll quietly leave, no fight, no closure, just disappear from my life and go on to live lighter, happier without me. And no one will even notice I'm not around. Not really. Like I was never that important to begin with.
