afraid
everybody is afraid of something
spiders,
death,
commitment

whereas i,
am afraid of only one thing
i'm afraid of what happens next
the future
and whatever it brings

i'm afraid that you won't be in it
i'm afraid i won't see you again
i'm afraid that you might be
temporary

therefore i prolong
whatever this is

casting away whatever doubts
that i have been having
ever since you said those 4 words
"i like you too"

i'm afraid of losing you
