I Am Afraid, Louise Bourgeois. 2009

I am afraid of silence

I am afraid of the dark

I am afraid to fall down

I am afraid of insomnia

I am afraid of emptiness

Is something missing?

Yes, something is missing and always will be missing

The experience of emptiness

To miss

What are you missing?

Nothing

I am imperfect but I am lacking nothing

Maybe something is missing but I do not know and therefore do not suffer
