I Am A Coward
I love you.
Yet I am a coward.
I have loved you longer
Than I have ever loved myself.
But I can't tell you that.
I will love you from a distance
Silently.
Because I'm too scared to go up to you.
And I feel that
It could never work out between us.
Because you're you
Dazzling, Gorgeous, Perfect.
And I'm only plain old me.
And I'm afraid things'll go wrong.
So I'm left here to love the idea of you
What you symbolize in my mind
Love.
Because I don't want to suffer openly.
Since I am a coward.
