I Ask Why

I ask why do you love me? You look at me confused. You don't seem to realize In love, I usually lose. I ask why do you love me? Again, I need to know. You are the kind of person that anyone would like to know. I ask why do you love me? I'm nothing special don't you see? Are you playing some kind of game with me? if so, just let me be. I ask again why do you love me? Please answer or I'll just go. I can't afford my heart to break. I know my mind will blow. So tell me why you love me. You seem sincere and sure. Love means sticking together and anything we can endure. What's that you say I'm simply the part of you that's been gone? All your life you've looked for me I'm the one you've waited on? What? You say that when you first looked at me, you saw the rest of your life exactly how you want it to be. Well, you are what I've waited for all my life til now I can't believe I've found you standing right in front of me somehow. 1/1/21
