"S"

I find it hard to trust,
easy to second guess
and be jealous.
I don't mean to bring my issues to the table,
I'm sorry for the baggage.
Know that the ways you make me feel far exceed my doubts about myself.
I want you like crazy
and am willing to do whatever it takes,
but don't want to come across too strong.
I don't know how to do casual,
don't know how not to love
with everything.
I'm my own worst critic
and I know that can be tiresome.
I'm sorry for my issues
and for how they reflect back on you. You give me a reason to do better,
to work harder,
to love fuller,
and be stronger.
Maybe it's too soon,
but I'm head over heels for you.
You're a dream come true.
So I'll wait a little while longer.
