I feel that I love you.
Carelessly, selfishly, incautiously.
I don't need walls to protect me.
I'm armored down to my soul.
I'm so wrapped up in you.
And I still feel whole.
At the same time,
I feel that if I lost you,
I wouldn't feel lost.
If you could never love me,
I wouldn't even feel loss.
I can live without you
Though, i'd rather not.
I feel that i'm me when i'm with you.
Yet, I don't even know who I am.
I want to find myself with you.
But I don't need you to hold my hand.
The thought of loving isn't scary
when it involves you.
I'd like to think that i'm ready
even if i'm not quite sure what to do.
Maybe it's because I'm not scared
of what you'd do to me
or if I see myself in you like a mirror.
Perhaps it's because loving you feels sure; right now, right here.
