Fear

By Danish Kamal

"I'm not afraid of loving people.

I'm afraid of the belittleness of it.

I fear the idea that at some point of time, how something, that meant the world to me, would lose its sheen.

This doesn't mean I fear departures;

I just fear how I might undervalue it once I reach where I'm destined to.

And neither am I afraid to move ahead;

but I fear, I might value the destination more than the journey itself."
