and I am scared.

I hide under the covers, trying to control my breath, I know you hear me, but you allow me this moments panic, this moment it's thoughts, you allow me this moment, and I can't help but remember, that, you give me the choice, you allow me the decision, you give me your beating heart, and say do what you will, and I do what I will, because I can't decide what to do when I am standing over the edge of a canyon, and all I want to do is fly, you allow me this moment, to see everything we are, and everything we are not, and underneath these covers, it is warm, but I feel the cold air find me as, the tenor of the room changes, and I'm so afraid I won't be, enough, that the experiences that litter your past, will call you their lover again, I'm so afraid of losing you, I'm pushing you out the door, And I meet your eyes one last time, and their is ocean in turmoil and I am the one who churned the waters, but I know someone's calling your name in the distance, even though they might never call mine.
