Scared

Is it normal to feel this way?

Is it normal to move at the pace we are?

Is your obsession with me normal?

Is it okay for me to bask in the warmth you give?

Is the feeling of being overly liked something people usually feel?

The happiness you bring, the way you care for me,

how attentive you are, how your focus lingers on me

as if I’m the only thing that matters—

How you let me consume your every thought

Is this what people feel when they are being pursued?

This feeling is new.

Despite the uneasiness your warmth stirs in me,

I can’t help but love the obsession you have for me.

And truth be told,

I am just as obsessed with you as you are with me.
