I would say I'm falling for you, but that wouldn't be strictly true. It's more like I'm sliding down a really long slippery slide, where I can't really see the bottom yet and every so often I grab the sides and stop myself. Because I'm afraid.
But every so often I let myself slide a little further down without really noticing. Because it's scary but it's fun as well and I know the only other way is to go back up and probably never look down again. And I don't want that.
Because I really like you. If I hadn't, I wouldn't have bothered to get this far. I'm just terrified of what awaits me at the bottom and what the people I hold close will say. Because the words of strangers are meaningless to me, but my biggest fear is letting down the people I love.
And so even though my fear may be in vain, it's still unknown and that's enough to set me on edge. But just because it's scary doesn't mean that it's not what I'm gonna go for, because for some strange reason, maybe I'm falling for you anyway...
