The Tragedy of a Burden'd Heart

I've been secretly in love with the same person for the last four years. She's become available, then dating, then single, on and off. I wish she knew how I felt but I can't tell her. I'm not sure why, because I think that a relationship could and would actually work between us. And it's not like she hasn't shown an overt interest occasionally. Maybe I'm afraid of commitment, or afraid that she'll discover who I really am inside and not like that side of me quite so much. I just don't know.

It is entirely possible that she is reading this post tonight and wondering if it is about her. Well guess what, dearest.

It is about you.

Why, when I have the chance to reach out and seize that which would ensure my happiness, do I cautiously turn and let opportunity slowly drift away?

Good night and peaceful sleep to all souls, drifting lost in life or love. God speed to those who mourn for tragedy which befalls us all, and may the light of hope grace all our sights with the dawning of a new day.

You've still got over 6 months sir. Take the chance and jump right in.

Uncertainty sucks a lot, don't let yourself wonder another day!

"fear of finding out who you really are" same thing happened to me, chances are she will accept it. everyone who has seen the "real me" has accepted it, i have found no rejection. (granted i havnt shown it to people who i dont trust, but those who i care about have seen)

if she's as wonderful and awesome as you think she is, she'll accept the real you.

no worries.
