Love is Fearful

How can I tell you about how I feel
How can I express how fearful I am
Because I am terrified

I'm afraid
I'm afraid if soulmates exist
You are mine
I'm afraid that if soul ties are real
Our souls are so uniquely intertwined

I'm afraid
I'm afraid that fate holds too much power
That destiny isn't only my name

I'm afraid
I'm afraid my heart is both open and closed,
Torn between wanting to give everything and fearing to give too much.

What if my love overwhelms you?
What if it's too much, too soon or too heavy?

I'm afraid
I'm afraid that if I surrender to this connection,
I might lose myself in the spaces between us.
That the more of you I love, the less of me I'll find.

I'm afraid
I'm afraid of what love asks of me-
That it demands more than I'm capable of giving,
And that somewhere along the way,
I'll disappoint us both.

I'm afraid
I'm afraid that fate will pull us in different directions,
That even though our souls met,
Time will never allow us to truly align again.

I'm afraid
I'm afraid of how deeply I care,
And how fragile I am when you're close,

Your words pull me in
But I have no clue what you're saying
Because I get completely lost in your eyes

I want so badly to be yours, and you'd be mine
But I'm afraid
Completely terrified.
