I admin, I was afraid to love

I admin,

I was afraid to love.

Not just love, but to love her.

For she was a stunning mystery.

She carried things deep inside her that no one has yet to understand,

and I,

I was afraid to fall, like the others.

She was the ocean

and I was just a boy who loved the waves

but was completely terrified to swim.
