Trembling "ILoveYou's"

by Stephanie   Apr 11, 2009


My fingertips are shaking; they've got a tremble that i just can't ward off. and vulnerability is cursing through me, hitting all the rights spots. [why am i terrified of the things i've never felt before?] boy, you're it - you're everything and more...

i loved you then just like i love you now. will i ever stop breathing in your scent in my moment of weakness, or is that a yearly trend? because your presence wraps around me, leaving me in a fog; you're everywhere. and i'm becoming addicted - so if you must leave, please leave now.

my feet know which direction is the right to go, but i can't muster up the courage to go against these childhood thoughts. happiness used to be a rare occurrence, but now happiness surrounds my fragile mind. [all because of you.] i cannot decide, or understand the reasons behind this fear. all i know is that your eyes cause any fear of mine to disintegrate right before my eyes.

there's so many questions and so many thoughts roaming inside this world i live in. and they all begin with the words "what if." though no matter how hard i try, i can't rid myself of the truth:

i love you more than i loved you then -
it grows with every touch and breathe we take,
but vulnerability is rolling on through me,
and it's been something that I just can't shake.
