honesty as best policy?

why is it that the hardest thing to do sometimes is being honest with the one you love???? what makes this essentially simple task so difficult? why can i not bring myself to say the things i really want to say? what do i fear? i know that i should... i know that it is the right thing to do.... and i know that if the situation were reverse i would absolutely under all circumstances would want to know and would want to know sooner than evidently possible but in deciding to reveal the truth to someone else, i hesistate. and wait. and wait. postponing what should be priority.
