Scared

I feel like
I've been pushing you away

I still feel
like that today

I'm scared
of losing you

I really hope
you know that's true

I love you
more than I can express

And each day
I feel I need to impress

But if 
I lose you now

There will be
an emptiness that
I will have to allow

My heart would
be broken

And words would
be left unspoken

I can't imagine
the level of pain
that will come

I believe that
it will make me numb

I know
if I do lose you
I won't be prepared

But more than that
I will be scared
