I am terrified of these feelings I seem to have for you,
The vulnerability that it brings me sends me to the edge of a precipice,
One that I can't see the ending beyond
Because of the hollow, darkness that surrounds it
I am thrown off guard by these blossoming feelings,
Feelings that I haven't and cannot decipher,
Like a code, a puzzle, a chest...One that I am afraid to unlock,
And yet, excited to be able to feel.
I am scared witless, of the magnetic pull you have on me
For I know, once I get attached to u,
I will never be able to endure the hurt that will come afterwards
I deem it inevitable, and it is
Yet here I am, jumping without hesitations
Contrarily, without fears.
I just hope I can guard my heart yet open it at the same time,
So I can feel the pleasure and warmth these feelings bring
Yet guard my heart just enough, So I can be able to stand up
In case someday you decide to leave.
