Love Poem: My Fear

My Fear

i’ve always thought i didn’t have any fears
that i was never scared of anything
like spiders, or the dark
i could over come it easily
but when it came to you
i was terrified 
not of you
but the feelings i felt with you
you made my stomach flutter
and my face red
you made me giggle a laugh i didn’t know i had
you made me stare in a way i didn’t want to
you made me nervous to the touch and 
you made me stutter every word i wanted out
there wasn’t an escape when you weren’t there either
you. were. always. there. 
the simple thought of you made me flutter with joy
there wasn’t a way out
you were like a disease, a sickness
but unlike a disease i didn’t want you to go
i wanted you to stay
to hug me
and tell me the parts of your day
i wanted you
you had infected my heart with your love
and i loved it
i loved everything about you
your hair
your laugh
your eyes sparkling
the way you made a face at anything confusing
and the way nothing stopped you ever
i loved every part about you
you gave me love
but i fear exactly that.
