I Have Three Followers

Three people are following me.

I like all three of them.
I admire their writing and the people they are.
Even though I don’t know them.

They’re following me.

It’s like a vote of faith.
A vote of recognition.
A vote of confidence.

Something tells me I’ll let them down.

I don’t know how to write and my opinions are trash.

But they’ll still follow me right?

I’m just afraid they’ll find me.

I don’t want anyone to find me.
