"Fairy Tales"
When I was little I dreamed of falling in love
I used to read fairy tales galore
That told me one kiss could take a simple girl
To something so much more
And the subject faded from my mind
Because it seemed merely a distant dream
But suddenly it seems so real again,
My eyes filled with emotion- once more agleam
And yet overpowering even love,
Is fear and knowing I could bring pain
So, for mostly his sake, but also mine
I will keep my emotions restrained.
Too many people care about us
To see us hurt each other
One of whom is
only a friend,
Another, one I love as a brother
I am scared to be any closer
When it can't truly mitigate the miles
I am scared to take a step
At least for a little while
Maybe in time I will figure it out
And be happy i finally did
But as for now, I will trust myself
So I don't hurt him, God forbid
