Damage Me Already


It's not that I don't love you.

I'm just too damn scared to feel this.

To feel love for someone else,

when half the time I can't even love myself.

So please don't take this the wrong way but

you terrify me.

I want nothing more than you

yet every bone in my body wants nothing more

then to run away.

But I guess we need to face our fears

one way or another.
