I risked it all
confessed my love
risked my heart
wanting it not to be torn apart
I proved myself
I rose to my feet
Got out of my little corner

Told me he loved me all along
When I look back
What was I scared of
Was it rejection
Was it fear of my heart being shredded
I didn't want my heart scattered on the ground

I know he loves me
He tells me I am beautiful
The kiss of a fallen angel
They clipped his wings
when he dropped cracked
A few ribs
torn up a little inside
I can see it in his eyes
That's what he cant see in mine

This was inspired from dating my bestfriend he always told me he loved me. Although we are no longer in a relationship we still are friends and still love each other.
