FEAR OF LOVE

Have you ever loved someone   
So much that fear takes control   
Of every emotions?  
Fear of loving. 
Fear of even seeing her face. 
Fear of even approaching her.  
How can love and fear be twisted   
In one so that you can't even   
tell them apart.  
Maybe, loving means risking everything   
For that one person who makes you   
feel larger then life.

I felt that with you, fear.  
Fear of not knowing to love you right.  
Fear of being young to love.  
Fear of failing you.   
I felt the love you had for me,    
But I couldn't understand. 
What I was to do next.

I felt jealous, whenever I saw   
You talking to other boys,   
But again I wasn't courageous enough   
To put myself together and approach you.   
I wish I was an enough, but I was just a little   
Village boy with no love experience

Whatever path our love took,   
One thing I know is true   
Your love made me realize   
What it is to be loved   
And I will forever be grateful for the love    
I don't know if the fear is still inside me   
But I feel it is long gone,   
Maybe if we meet again,  

I dare you to come try me
