Can You Tell Me This Is Real?

I’m scared I’ll lose you before I ever get you in my arms,

and I don’t know how to work through that.

You tell me I’m everything you’ve ever wanted,

but what if I say the wrong thing and you decide I’m not?

How do I process losing someone I never got the chance to love?

Maybe I’m not as fearless as I thought.

Maybe the thought of you is both exhilarating and terrifying.

You have so much more of me than I meant to give,

and I don’t know how to tell you that.
