I am afraid.
Of the lull of time
Of the corosion of romance
I am afraid
Of the expiration of something once so sweet
Of the failing of something once so divine
It has happened
Over
And
Over
Again
Despite promises
Despite compromise
It doesn't matter what the films and books say
I know that the odds are stacked
Statistics told me so
Baby,
I am truly
And
Genuinely
Scared.
