I love you
There
I said it
But not to you, though
Because I'm afraid
I'm scared that you'll end up like everyone who's told me the same things,
I'm scared that you'll leave and pretend that you didn't just shatter my whole world when you ask me to be just friends
But I know you won't do that
I love you
There
I said it
But not to you, though
Because I'm afraid
I'm afraid you'll get to know me better and it'll drive you away
I'm afraid that maybe if I showed you my true colors you'd want to be with a different hue
But I know you're not like that
I love you
There
I said it
But not to you, though
Because I'm afraid
I'm ******* terrified that you'll realize what a mess I am, how I'm barely holding myself together, and that'll make you run away
I'm terrified of losing you before I even feel confident enough to have you
I know you're not like that
I know that
I wouldn't have loved you if you were
But that doesn't help
It doesn't make me trust myself
Loving you isn't gonna make me stop doubting myself
I love you
But I still can't say it
It's not because I'm not sure
It's because I'm afraid
