I was afraid to love you... not because you didn't deserve it, but because I knew that love could destroy me. My heart broke so many times until I learned to hide it behind silence.
I pushed you away, ignored my feelings and pretended not to need you.. when in reality, it already belonged to you.
You didn't come into my life by chance; you knocked down all the walls I had built to protect me.
And now you reside in the deepest part of me, where no one has come before.
I may not say it like you want, and I may not show it enough.. but my fear is not loving you, it's losing you. Because this time, it is not temporary, it is not fleeting... it's real.
And if I ever lose you, I won't just lose a person, I'll lose the one place I felt I belonged.
