A Romance Like That

You want a romance like that,
but you won't even give it a chance:
you'll push it away,
because you know that you're not ready for it
and no matter how much you want to be,
you aren't,
and it scares you to bits.
Because even though a little wear and tear never killed anybody,
it doesn't mean it didnt hurt.
And even though it's no pain no gain,
sometimes the gain isn't really worth it in your eyes.
And it's just that you're so scared,
the particles on your skin start to squirm,
pricking at a lot of things like your self confidence and worth.
And you want a romance like that,
but you wont even give it a chance.
Because you know that no matter how much you want to be,
You're just not ready.
