Too Many Times

Too many times

Have I let my insecurities

Over power my life

Because of the lack of confidence

I have in myself

Convincing myself that if you really loved me

That you would hold on tight

And never let go

And in fact let go of everyone else

But what kind of love would that be

Making you trade one life for another

When you can just create one together

I have failed you and at the same time myself

Love gone wrong has made me weak

And untrusting

But making you pay for someone else's mistakes

Isn't the way to move on

And certainly not the way to let go

I will get better

I messed up so many times before

But only you are worth trying for

And only you are worth changing for

Too many times

Have I used words that crucify you

"if", "might" in negative ways

Making you out to be evil

Waiting for something bad to happen

But no longer will I

You will not hurt me

I love you in unbelievable ways

Which scares me

Its so much so fast

But true all the same
