Afraid of love

By: EGC

You and I had been going out for a long time,
and at that time we were as one.
I thought it would be FOREVER and ETERNITY,
but I was dead wrong.

Because something happened. All of a sudden, you said,
"I LOVE YOU,"
and I didn't say it back because I was afraid.
Afraid of what, I don't know.
But inside, I LOVE YOU with all my heart.
i just had to lie to you and say nothing
so i wouldn't get hurt.

That's when I felt you slipping away.
I was just afraid to show you how I really feel about you
and I don't know why.
YES, I do love you.
I denied you my love
because I didn't want my heart to get hurt.

But I had absolutely no idea I was tearing your heart up inside.
And that's when you started to cry all the time.
Till one day you had enough of it and said, "I quit.
I don't LOVE YOU anymore."
At that moment in time I couldn't even breath.
I just wanted to curl up and die.

I just wish I had said something or done something to show
you I really cared about you, because I miss you a lot.
I know it's too late to tell you how I feel,
but I'm going to tell you anyway with just three little words
that can explain it all:
" I LOVE YOU "
