My darling

You seem so tense

I need you to calm down

Do you think you can do this

You say you’ve had enough

Enough of what?

Life.

Darling, don’t

I was once like you

I was once that cripplingly shy and self contained

It is not conducive to growth

Do you want to stay like this forever?

Your inhibitions are a tomb

They will be your downfall

They were nearly mine

You are frightened

I know that

You have the right to

Everyone does

I need you to listen

You are perfect and angelic and more worth while than you’d ever know

Believe me.
