you are rays of sunshine;
i am brimming with light.
we are glowing;
both with things we don't
yet understand,
but we know are too good
and too rare
to take for granted;
to lose.
you say you are not afraid;
you tell me that
you can handle it,
everything's okay,
you've never felt like this
about anyone
before
and that makes you
truly happy.
so what am i supposed
to think when
you leave me slowly
and swiftly,
quietly
and calmly,
like a storm of brewing
misconceptions insecurities and fears
that i don't understand
because you won't let me.
you've never felt this way
about anyone
before
and that makes you
truly hesitant
and
truly afraid.
you are not afraid of me;
you are afraid of you.
you are afraid of your love
and of my love
and of what the future
can hold.
but just because
you've never felt like this
about anyone
before
truly does not
excuse you for
leaving me
the way you did.
