Poetry: Afraid to love

by Carmen Colin

Created on: December 15, 2008

Why am I so afraid?

Is it my past, which has kept me from moving on?

Is it the fear that no one will love me back?

Is it the fear that something will go wrong again?

Is it the fear that I'll be hurt again?

The fear that keeps me from being able to love is one in which I can not describe

I hope you'll be the one I've been looking for

Yet I don't want to give in to the desire that keeps me alive

I'm afraid to love, yes, it's true

But I can not help but say this, even with this fear

I think I'm falling in love again...
