Lovely!

Simple, I guess, but I'm going to comment anyway. It's like an inward debate (hence the "my heart's torn in two.") She's falling in love with someone, but is trying to stay distanced, probably because of previous experiences of being hurt. It's easier not to try, since if she doesn't tell him how she feels, she'll never get hurt. But then she's really falling for him. At the end, I guess she decides to tell him - "what you never know - unless you try."

I love this. Means a lot to me. It's like when you like someone and you want to tell them but you're too scared about getting rejected. I guess everyone's felt that way.
