your love scares me
as it reminds me
of what i used to have
for the people who ended up
breaking me anyway

i know i could never
do that to you
but i'm scared that one day,
i'll wake up and watch you
tear my heart apart
like everyone else did

and i know it would hurt
so much more than it did
with all the other boys
back then
because you actually
make me happy right now
and treat me the way
that i should be treated

it will hurt so much more
to wake up from a dream
so beautiful
