Anxious Love

What worries me most is the timing 

We feel and think so much 

I don't want to ruin this feeling 

Why do we have to rush?

 

I want you now, stong feelings of lust

Your physical presence is craved

My heart is big, my mind is broad 

Please don't let me cave 

I feel so good, but anxious too

This is all new to me

Different from past relations

I'm afraid to see what it means

 

He's so kind and deep and caring

So strong and intelligent too

My face hurts when we talk 

From smiling at him woo 

 

I act as if I don't know, the value of myself

As if his infatuated words, aren't known very well

When in all honesty I know, all of the greatness I've withheld 

But I also know my weaknesses, & the faults of the world

I'm afraid to become a statistic, or otherwise become blind 

For feelings tend to do that, influencing the mind

 

Let's do this right, my mind keeps saying  

But what does that actually mean?

I tear apart the situation 

But find nothing to better explain

 

So I beg the universe to lead the way 

Signaling the good and bad

Please help me avoid destruction 

I don't want to end up sad
