Dear Crush,
Hi, it's me again. You might be wondering why I'm writing to you again and, well, I need to tell you something. I like you. I know that I've said it at the end of my first letter to you, but I felt like I needed to say it again, well, type it out. There, I said it and I don't feel scared about hiding it whenever I see you. Although, knowing me, I would be hiding it still since you have no idea, and I would want to keep it until I'm ready to tell you.
You see, I keep on having these dreams where I tell you and you wrote me a letter, well you typed up a letter to me. Everyone is afraid of rejection, even me. The other dreams, well, are just confusing as well. Everything is confusing when it comes to your crush and dreams, because you have so many emotions going on.
You might wondering why I haven't said anything in person and here's the reason.
The truth is, I don't want to ruin whatever we have going on, because it's nice not to worry anything about that, and yet I want to know how you feel about me. Having crushes is hard because you want to tell them that you like them, but there is that side of you where you're afraid of rejection and losing someone just because of an emotion that everyone has.
Yes, there's a chance that you feel the same, but there's a chance that you don't. Its like a Catch 22, quite frankly, and it's a lot scarier than public speaking. It's something that you have hidden for months and sometimes you have to do something scary. Though, I'm glad that I chose to write this as something to fall back on if I can't say anything at all.
Like Tori Kelly said in her song, Hollow.
"I don't wanna be the first one folding
I don't wanna be the joker heart
Tell me, darling, will you understand me?
And not show me your cards?"
The ball is in your court now.
Sincerely,
The girl who was shy to say something.
