Terrified

Terrified

A Poem by april13

I’m terrified.

There, I said it. That’s how I really feel.

Everything’s changing

-while the world stood still.

 

I’m terrified.

-of you

You are everything I hoped you would be

And somehow, I don’t know what to do.

 

You came when I least expect it.

You came and you turned my world upside down.

You came and made my life better.

Yet I fear that I may drown.

 

For I had known happiness

But not like what you had given me.

And I fear that one day, it’ll be gone .

And I’d have to set you free.

 

I had known pain and only pain for so long.

I never thought I’d ever break free from that prison.

But I did.

And I know I became a stronger person.

 

And yes, I am terrified.

Coz as strong as I am now,

I don’t want to go through it all again.

I just want to be safe, somehow.

 

I’m terrified.

-of my feelings

-of the future.

-of you.

 

But even if I’m terrified, I’d try to be brave enough

-brave enough to tell you, “I Love You”

That my life became so much better when you came.

That I’ll be forever thankful for the blessing, that’s you.

Afraid of losing it again . A heart that needs a words of affirmation validated by affection. Then it will be sure and secure.

An awesome (and courageous) display of raw emotion and 100% real feelings that appears to be written exactly like it is felt and thought out...pure honesty with one's self as if it were spoken to the mirror.

Thanks for sharing this
