The fear, it lingers in the dark
struggles next to me in bed.
I fear
when I kiss a girl,
I won't like it.
I fear
some of the adults
in my life.
I fear
that my own happiness
will tear relationships apart.
I fear my own future
But I know
that once lips lace with hers
it will feel right
It won't feel like
I'm doing this
because this is what
people expect from me.
I know
I'm not the one
responsible for the relationships
that might fall apart.
I know, but
it doesn't stop the fear
that will caress skin
with its chilled finger tips
at night.
