In English my name is derived from a flower, in Italian it's an ever green tree with fragrant rose like flowers. My middle name comes from the first for letters of my birth name, Rose. It means peaceful, it means patient, it's like the number 16. A bright color, it's the soft pitter patter of the rain on my window as a spirit enters the world. A mothers soft lullaby, the sweet melody. It was my mothers favorite name & now it's mine. It fits like pieces of a puzzle, two perfect lovers with their fingers intertwined, a mother to its child, like two halves of a heart. It represents me in ways only true eyes can perceive. It's the way an artists' hand embraces his paint brush, how a tagger spray paints his passion, around the world they say my name funny; like it's a rare species brought to society for the first time in history. It's the peace after the war, It's a song whispered like a secret; when it passes through his lips it's soft; like and angels' touch, newly fallen snow, freshly picked strawberries on a warm summers' day. It's that passionate feeling you get from your first kiss, it's real emotion, the spirit of creativity, a single rain drop dangling from a rose petal flushed with pink. It's a singers voice with the potential to be great. I am Kamelia; known only as one other name, Real. Because that's what I am, I am me & I wouldn't have it any other way.

FEAR


 Fear: An unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat. What is there to fear? Everything, everything in this universe is to be feared, whether we choose to be afraid of them is up to us. Me personally, I fear a lot of things, things that I shouldn't necessarily fear. I fear that if I disappear no one will notice, If I let go of his hand he'll float away, If I don't visit her she'll die alone. I am afraid of letting people down. Why? Because everyone needs someone to look up to and if you're not worth looking up to then what are you worth?  WE fear things that we don't understand, that we don't know, and that we are too scared to find out. We as human being fear that we might not be worth anything to anyone. Now you may think that the things I am afraid of are ridiculous but that's your opinion, I am afraid of things in this world just like everyone else, just like you.
