should i be scared?

never have i felt so exposed
have opened myself truly to someone knowing that our time together, physically together, may come to an end
knowing that until now i had not felt at extremes, i had not risked me, like i am now
and yet i feel safe

i'm sure
i chose someone to love me and hold me near
someone brave, strong and wise
someone who's shoulders carry the world and yet he chose to carry me
someone who despite everything keeps his head high
someone willing to let me go if my opportunities should take me elsewhere

i stand by you and realize that i am yours
as i watch you talk
as i watch you smile
as i watch you joke around, laugh out loud
i see a million reasons to why i cherish you
to why, me, as a believer of independency, go as far as to say that i need you
to why i know that whatever comes we will take it together

miles apart made us better
what's a little bit more?

should i be scared?
hell yeah,
but i'm not
