Poem: Dare I?

I wrote this poem years ago, and have refined it several times since.

"Dare I speak the forbidden words
with the fear of losing you?
Dare I open my mouth and say
what is and isn’t true?

Dare I walk us down this path,
not knowing where we’ll land?
Dare I reach out my arm to you,
hoping you’ll take my hand?"

Nice poem. Is it about your best friend ?

I wrote it many years ago, but every time I (think I might) have a crush on someone, it resurfaces in my mind and seems relevant again.
Somehow it always fits.
