i think we're both afraid. i don't know what you're afraid of but i'm afraid of putting my heart out on the line it's been broken before even when i wasn't trying and if it makes any sense i feel like if you broke it it would be beyond repair because i feel more for you than i've felt for anyone before i'm afraid of telling you how i feel and you not feeling the same not because of the rejection but because i never let people in and to think that i let you in only for you to decide to knock on another door seems like too much to bear i'm afraid because i've never done a brave thing in my life and i can't imagine taking this step without knowing how the story ends but most of all i'm afraid because this could be everything i've ever wanted and the sheer magnitude of it all is the scariest thing i can imagine.
