Afraid

Should I stay,
Or should I go away?

I do not want to burden you
With all my thoughts so blue.

Yet the comfort that comes from your soothing voice
Makes it hard for me to make a choice.

I crave the gentle touch of your hand;
I fear the intimacy I want so bad.

The closer I get to you
Increases the risk of losing you.

I am deathly afraid
That everything will change.
