jumping right into it

you don't know me but that's okay.

i often wonder what life would be like without you...
would i be as loud?
would i understand another person as well as i do you?
would i love another like i love you?


the answer lies in the future, but i am afraid.
very afraid of failing in love,
afraid of fixing a broken heart and spirit...
and very afraid of finding another to replace you.

but how could i even think of "replacing" you?
i don't want our thing,
our relationship
connection
to be severed.
oh but we must face the facts
and be realistic!

if it did end,
what would we do?
