Love, Power, and Fear

Ladywithaquill

You fell first, but I fell harder,

And I wouldn’t even wish this fate,

On my arch-enemy’s daughter,

But for me, it’s already too late.

 

I, the hopeless romantic,

I finally found my ray of hope.

And it indeed feels fantastic,

As life turns into a movie trope.

 

I find it so hard to believe,

When you say I’m sweet and kind.

But I know my hands feel lonely,

Without our fingers intertwined.

 

I try to scare you away,

Lay my insecurities in front of you bare,

I feel naked but hope you stay,

You stay and tell me you care.

 

How could I give you such power,

I was helpless, you must’ve tricked me.

Your sweetness made my fears cower,

The girl that taught you, who was she?

 

But you give me power too,

To fight my problems and face my fears,

Because I know I have you,

My insecurities start to disappear.
