Another Lover
Dear most loved lover,
I sat here ... and thought of you.
I felt something everytime you spoke, everytime you breathed.
I want to say it was fear because then I would have a reason to leave you,
-to protect me-
-to survive you-
-to pretend you never existed-
but you see, it wasn't you.
It was me, I was the fear.
-fear of losing you-
-fear of leaving you-
-fear of being left behind-
I wanted you to know this
but mostly I wanted you to know my biggest fear,
the fear of not being loved back.
Love, your least loved lover
