I learned,
Today,
How to love.
The most terrifying feeling
I’ve ever known.
Because you suddenly know
Without a doubt
How truly fragile you are.
Because a word from them,
Can break you.
Another word
Could save you.
To know there exists someone
With that power over you
Is a terrifying thing.
To know you hold such power,
Over another,
Is a hundred times worse.
Because to find
The place
Where your heart ends
And theirs begins
Is a treacherous path.
To sever that thread –
To cut yourself free –
Who knows how much of them
You’re taking away?

You very very well capured that "special" feeling with your words.OH it makes you very vulnurable to be in love specially if the feelings are mixed and twisted up.
You did such a wonderful job on this poem
