I AM FRIGHTENED TOO

I have been alone¹ my whole life. I know it is very frightening to be alone. I know that the first step that you must² take is the hardest one. I know you do not want to take it.

I know you will be better off if you do.

I am reaching out to across time, across space, across skin and bone and atoms and electrons and currents and pixels and zeros and ones.

I hope that you will accept it.

It is just as hard to reach out as it is to receive it.³

I am doing it anyway.

I am tired of being alone.

Take my hand.⁴

Step through the gap.
