We were scared

We were scared. We wasted too much time. We were hesitant to decide when we needed to decide quickly. We lost the match. We lost the bet. We cried. We smelled bad. We didn’t know what to wear. We didn’t have time to iron. We half-assed the task. We forgot to call them. We left food on the stove. We forgot to stop by the store. We broke a plate. We left an umbrella at the cafe. We lied. We disagreed but kept quiet. We drank too much. We didn’t call back. We pulled a muscle. We lost a loved one. We lost faith. We were jealous. We skipped the gym. We overate. We tried to look cool. We spent hours watching useless bullshit. We were wrong. We tried to be like them because they wouldn’t be scared. Only to realise that there is no them.
