Fear

Why is there a fear, of falling in love?
For it is a gift that was sent from above.
Love is something that can last forever;
Through all sickness and pain we'll still be together.
Spending mountains of years admiring all of your charms,
Singing love songs to you, while I lay in your arms.
Me and you together, that has always been my dream;
But I soon came to realize it's not what I thought it'd seem.
This love I have for you could never be measured in any way;
But what hurts me the most, is that you do not feel the same.
For you, posses a factor, that love could never adhere.
It is fatal to our growth, and the factor is...fear.
Fear of love...fear of life.....fear of the coming of all your dreams.
Fear of telling me, "I love you"and knowing truly what it means.
Fear of longing for my kiss, and making all the right decisions;
Fear of seeing me on one knee and you altering your visions.
Fear of gaining 50 pounds, and wobbling around for nine months;
Fear of moving in my house and knowing, this..... is what you want.
Fear of her saying, "mommy"when she has a scary dream;
Fear of being happy, living life...as a family.
For you this is a nightmare, yet a dream come true to me;
Which really makes me wonder, if we were truly meant to be.
Don't let your fright come between what truly matters most;
Cause'one day you'll come around, and think I'll be here...and I won't.
So the next time you long to whisper those three words I want to hear;
Think back to those days, when you drove me away, by your fear.
