I won't tell you I love you

if I don't mean what I say,

I won't hold your hand

if my plan is to betray.

I won't pretend I care

just so you'd fall for me,

I won't fake kindness

if you're really not my cup of tea.

I won't let you hold me

if I know that you will leave,

I won't give you my heart

if you're someone I'll never believe.

I won't let your words get to me

if you don't mean what you say,

I won't need your smile

to make it through the day.

And so you ask why I'm afraid

to fall in love with you

It's because I fear distance.

And I fear commitment, too.

-p.s.

P.S. It's taken me two years to complete this. So proud xD
