So Scared of Love

by David Marshall   Jan 21, 2007


I've never been so scared,
I'm worried half to death.
This is my chance for my heart to be repaired,
I'm so nervous I'm running out of breath.

It's good I moved on,
but this is some one new.
It's been so very long,
I don't know what to do.

What if she doesn't really like me?
What if I'm not what she expected?
What if I can't make her happy ?
What if I'm rejected?

She's such a great person,
and oh so very beautiful.
What if I ruin it ?
What if she thinks I'm pitiful ?

Just looking at her makes me smile,
and talking to her makes my day.
What if I'm not worth while ?
What if she walks away ?

I've never been so scared,
so very scared of love.
A new road is always rare,
rejection is so hard to bare.

So nervous I can hardly breath,
I'm giving my heart away again.
What if she doesn't want my heart ?
What if she just wants to be my friend ?

Every time I hug her,
I dream for a kiss.
I wonder if I love her,
if I'm taking a risk.

Every time I see her,
I dream for a future.
My last love cost pain,
nothing but torture.

True love is hard to find,
It's location I'm not sure.
But I want to have it with some one,
and I was hoping that some one was her.

    This poem had a great storyline that everyone can relate to. And you really played out all the questions that can run through your mind. That was good, but there were a couple suggestions I had.

    Okay this stanza...
    I've never been so scared,
    so very scared of love.
    A new road is always rare,
    rejection is so hard to bare.

    It doesn't rhyme like the rest. Love doesn't have a rhyme to go with it. And in some of your stanzas like the first one, some lines are just too long and break the flow of your poem. So I would work on that.
    Still, good job!
