I tend to push people away because I think they deserve better, 
fear of being unloved, being too much, 
not worth loving, 
I often tell myself, 
i am better  off not knowing.

I criticize myself, so you don't have to,
I give you reasons why you shouldn't love me, show you how damaged i truly am. 

I create problems where they shouldn't be, by overthinking, 
overanalyzing situations, because i am scared of the outcome.

I want is for someone to resist my efforts at pushing them away,
tell me that i am worth holding onto, even when i am not.
