Why.... I love you, that's why.

I was not afraid
of anything in this world
there is nothing you can throw at me
that i haven't already heard

but why are my hands
trembling as i type
and my tears should fall
with those words you say

i am scared
of losing you
of not having you in my life
your smile that brightens my day

i am frightened
of losing you
of losing the light in my life
shining on my dark existence

i am fearful
of losing you
and the thought of you in someone else's arms
just makes me lose my mind

i have never been afraid
of losing anyone
simply because
i've never loved anyone
as much as i did with you
