Fear
I'm always scared of everything.
Dogs, heights, cows, crazy people...
But I'm mostly scared of you.
I'm scared of the power you have over me
and you don't even know it.
You smile at me and my whole day changes.
You have no idea
that sometimes I just stare,
stare at you when you're not looking.
I'm scared one day you'll notice though.
What would you say?
I can't love my best friend.
I'm too scared.
That stupid girl flirted with you
and I just about died.
I thought,
no, I worried,
about you and her
for days and days.
Your unkown power over me.
And then you told me you didn't care about her
and my heart leaped for joy
and my stomach did the salsa
while my intestines danced a tango,
but my face didn't show any of this to you.
You can't know.
You can't know your power.
I would rather face all my greatest fears
than give you relationship advice one more time.
Here is my relationship advice:
Date me!
How can you not see
that all along,
all these years,
I've been falling for you?
How can you not see
the power you have over me?
I'm scared to death.
Scared that you'll never know and find some girl.
I'll be at your wedding.
But what if I tell you?
What if I ruin our friendship
because you truly only ever saw me as
"one of the guys"?
I'm not a guy.
I'm the girl who's so scared.
Scared because I'm in love with you.
