Please, let’s stay under the blankets. Please, stay here with me, where it’s warm and calm.
Outside, people are hating and killing each other. Here, we can pretend that nothing happened. We can pretend that people aren’t tearing each other apart for I don’t know what ideas. We can pretend the world is not falling apart. We can hope that our future will be brighter. I cannot take this violence anymore, people killing each other for this or for that. I’m 26 years old and I wish I could live in a world where I would not have to be scared of what other people might think of me. But I can’t. Because now, people are killing each other because they are different, because they think different, they dress different, because they love different. I mean, it’s not only happening “now”, it’s been happening for thousands of years, I just feel that lately it took a turn for the worse. It’s everywhere.
Everywhere except underneath this blanket.
I thought people understood. I thought people knew that underneath it all, we were just all scared. Scared of being alone, scared of being rejected, scared we won’t find someone to love us. Tell me, when it’s all going to stop? When are we going to stop waking up to some other tragedy that happened somewhere in the world?
Please, I don’t want to wake up anymore. Let me stay under the covers, nothing bad ever happens here.
Outside, I’m afraid. I’m afraid to live, I’m afraid not to live enough. Should I feel bad and reflect on how Humans are fucking everything up? Or should I pretend everything is okay? I don’t know anymore, I’m telling you, I don’t. I know you think I’m naïve – and maybe I am – but would not it be easier if people just let others live their lives? I know, it is idealistic, and maybe a bit childish too. I know life is not rainbows and unicorns… But what if it was? What if you could be yourself and no one cared except for telling they appreciate you for it?
Underneath the blankets, it’s so nice and cosy. I don’t have to pretend, I can just be myself, because it is safe. Please, let’s stay under the blankets, just you and me.
