I've never been so afraid of you
Never so ultimately frightened
Like I was in that room.

Before you panic, before your face falls flat
Remember there's more to this poem,
More than the first line, yes I'll explain that.

I was unaware that someone so sweet, so gentle,
So innocent with those eyes and words so concerned,
Could hold so tight, while being so careful.

Arms with such a close grip and pressured lips,
Life had never felt scary, so new
But nothing has ever been so worth it.

Now I've run out of words to rhyme and phrases to abuse, but it all comes down to this.
There are people I've known much longer than I've known your sarcasm and wit.
But I've never felt as safe as I did with you.
Frightening, isn't it?
Who is this person I barely know,
Yet have every inch of their mind engraved in my own?
Perhaps there's a possibility I shouldn't have written this.
But maybe I shouldn't care.
Because as you so gracefully put it,
You're all gonna die anyway
So why not write what I must say
