Lukas’ P.O.V

The feeling of fear. The fear of losing everything. Everything you've ever loved. Everything you ever knew. All molded into this giant black hole that takes away the things that people love most.

The feeling of drowning. Like your life is slipping out of your grip. Only to never be seen, remembered or loved again. The feeling of pity for someone to love someone who is so broken they can't be fixed.

That’s how I feel with Philip. He is this optimistic, fearless, amazing person. But then there's me never wanting to let people in. Always afraid of expressing who and what I love.

Philip told me once it was him and I against the world but how can someone so confident pair with someone too afraid to open up? It's like when they teach you in science about the magnetic force. How a negative connects to a positive.

But never a negative to a negative or positive to positive because the magnetic force slowly pulls away. When i’m with Philip I feel like anything is possible. That I can be who I want to be. That no one can control me. It’s like i’m in the clouds and he brings me back to reality.
