I refrain.

Awake.
Late at night.
Dark outside.
 
Thinking, thinking, thinking.
Hours slipping by.
No sleep.
 
I’m awake.
Thinking upon what is.
 
Thinking of him.
He means the world to me and yet...
 
I’m terrified he might shatter it in one night.
 
I say I trust him and yet...
Here I am.
Questioning everything I thought I was sure of.....
 
Some say it’s wrong.
Some encourage it.
Some won’t say at all...
 
How do I know I won’t get hurt.
I say I trust him and yet...
Still.
Here I am.
 
I can’t seem to think through it enough in order to reassure myself.
Only he can.
Perhaps...
 
I’m merely scared at the thought of being hurt.
 
He says he won’t leave...
But how can I know for sure...
With everything that I am, I want to believe him;
I’m just afraid of being broken-hearted.
And yet, I’m tired of being afraid.
 
I make myself question everything...
