Birthdays

Each year I want to hide in invisibility. There’s a bargain going on inside as I pick a path— If I stay, maybe I’ll feel loved and seen. But maybe my fears of insignificance will be realized.

Why is it such a struggle between desiring to be loved and allowing someone to show you love? There is such fear that they will forget or disappoint.

If I felt known, I would feel safe.
