To: You

When Love & Fear Collide, There I Go & Hide

I want to show you what I love.

I want to show you what I know.

I want to show you everything

And nothing

All at the same time.

I'm scared of love and I hope you know that,

But I know you don't know that.

To feel something so deeply for someone.

To care so much that every thought

Burns and tears at you,

Eating away at your blood and bones.

I loved too much once

And I drowned in its wake.

Now will I burn with these thoughts,

And maybe this give and take?
