I Got Issues

I'm consumed by jealousy's flame Overzealous emotions, hard to tame My highs are intoxicating, lows devastating Anger burns, a fire I'm hesitating To love you fiercely, or leave in haste My heart's a rollercoaster, hard to predict the pace But you don't judge me, and that's my reprieve For I'd judge you too, in self-defense We're flawed, imperfect, yet we fit Our issues entwined, a complicated knit Give me your demons, I'll share mine Together we'll face the trials of our minds Bask in the glory of our brokenness Our love's the solution to our messiness I got issues, one's my need for you You, with your quirks, and hands that pull me through Poorly wired, yet perfectly mine You break, you mend, with an ocean's design Push and pull, our love's a test But you see it from my side, and I from yours, we're blessed We got issues, but love makes us whole Embracing flaws, our hearts now unfold I need you, you need me, in this imperfect dance Together we'll heal, in this messy romance.
