Fear of My Confession

He came in a blink and immediately caught my eye

I began to fear my feelings, because I was scared you would say bye

The worry that filled me was diminished to nothing by my soul

Because it filled my head with euphoria and loved filled the holes

But time came to pass for me to confess

I feared your reaction and by fear I was possessed 

Fear of rejection, fear of a being pushed aside

But the fear of never knowing how you felt coaxed me outside

I fought the fear with hope that we could be more

And my fear came to life when when you walked out the door

I picked myself up from the ground and conquer the fear with dedication 

To commit myself to my work and use distractions as medication

For the fear of you knowing had torn me apart

The solution of knowing that things get better is what banished fear from my heart.
