Stupid Cupid

Why do we freak out the moment somebody tries to open up? Why? When if we just paused and tried to listen maybe the clouds will clear up. Instead we babble incomprehensible words. Blurt out joking remarks. Build this shield of defense around us. Too scared to know. Simply unprepared to handle the truth.

I wish it weren't so. But I can not help it.
I am freaking out as we speak.

Stupid Cupid. Stop picking on me.
