I just called to say...

Disclaimer: Work of fiction! :) Don't harrow me later please.

I dialled your number twice. But disconnected before the connection was set up. I am afraid of the connection as well. Because once there is a connection, we often get pulled along with each other. And I don't want that to happen.

I am worried - I don't want to fall in love with you. Perhaps, I am scared of falling in love as well. The expectations from each other and the resultant frustration often drains one's power to think.

I am scared of looking into your eyes and telling you how much I like you. I am scared of holding someone's hand. I am scared of looking high up proclaiming the existence of the love between us that's greater in enormity than the whole wide sky. Because the sky comes falling down one day and breaks you into pieces.

Please don't think I don't like you. The fact is, I am scared of myself. And I am scared of love...
