Poeme : Afraid

I am so afraid to lose you
By letting the distance set in
By preventing you from breathing
Either way, I am losing you.

Scared that our love might not make it
Afraid of having too much faith
Afraid of falling from the hit
Scared of missing life in the wait.

Scared of giving up too early
Scared of letting myself move on
Scared of holding on too dearly
Scared of getting stuck once you’re gone.

Terrified of seeing you change
Terrified of seeing me change
Afraid of the next adventure
Afraid of losing our future.
