my beating heart
My chest is beating so fast:
I have fallen so hard
And given my heart fully,
I have worn it on my sleeve.
And the fear, the anxiety
That maybe you have changed your mind,
Maybe I gave too much
And pushed you away,
Maybe my worry
That I did something wrong
Is what ruins this.
But I’m so scared that I will lose you.
To go to bed
And not be able to text goodnight –
To wake up with the sun
And not text good morning.
My eyes leak as I imagine this world
And I pray that it doesn’t happen.
Because then, what do I do?
How do I open my heart again
If this crushes me?
