something

i know you so well already
what's your name again
the truth is that i never stood a chance
it was the hair, the hair and the eyes
then there was you
immediate counterpoint to everything i've ever been
all i ever thought of love
it's ridiculous really
but i had thought that the only thing
i had to fear was fear itself
now i fear you
i fear having you
i fear losing you
you were the one who awoke me to
the bitterness and pain
the tenderness and love
