Why am I like this?
He finally asked me out
After a year of anticipation and waiting
He finally asked
It should be an exciting time
A time that should feel like a high that only teenage love can bring
A time that should be filled with shrieks of joy and exhilaration
And yet
When I see his text I freeze with fear
No thoughts in my mind
No smile on my face
It shouldn't be a terrifying time
A time that shouldn't feel like a low that only your worst nightmare can bring
A time that shouldn’t be filled with dread and panic
Why am I petrified of the possibilities to come
Why can I not experience that same euphoric feeling my friends do
Why am I like this
