Fear

I am so very nervous these days- My hands shake, I am so jumpy. Chris is begging for chances I will not give him, and being way too nice. I am cringing and waiting for the other shoe to drop.

I sit here in Lexington, Kentucky Cracker Barrel eaten alive with nervous ticks- back against the wall, fearing him eight hours away.

I just want control of my life again, I need that power back.

No more intimidation, so subtle his parents blindly overlook it- no more promises….Just a peace within me and focus where it belongs.

I untether my happiness from my circumstances.

About the Author

From Review: "Charlotte von Wolfle Greer is an artist in the truest sense of the word. Tormented, embattled, strong, fearless and fearful. Curious, and full of wonder yet jaded and defeated at times. An artist shares what they feel. A true and brave artist shares what they feel completely as Charlotte does, in these pages." -Erik Johnson View all posts by Charlotte Von Wolfle Greer
