I Want You But

I’m not going to lie
I’m terrified,
So petrified.

I want you to like me,
But I’m scared that you like me
I know that you like me
You don’t hide
How you feel
But how can I be sure that it’s real?

You’re confident
I’m more reserved
I'm easily unnerved
Especially by you.
And you’re cute
So fucking cute
I don’t know what I’m going to do
About you.

I want you to be mine
But how do I make you mine?

I'm going to act like such a fool
When I meet you
I hope I don't scare you.

You say I evoke desires that you never felt before
Were on the same page then,
We both want more.

But who knows what the future holds?
As long as you hold me close
At some point when we meet,
I'll try to forget my woes.

I want you but...

I can’t do this.
