I dare not voice
My feelings,
Because I don't know
How I feel,
And this uncertainty
Terrifies me.

It's not the feelings
That scare me,
But the lack thereof.
The emptiness
Is cavernous
And nothingness
Echoes inside me.

I dare not voice
My feelings,
Because I don't know
How I feel,
And once I say the words,
I can never
Get them back.
