This Is For You

All I ever want to do Is think about, “What if,” with you I know that you’re too good for me I almost don’t want to wait and see I know that one day, you’ll come around And I’m not strong enough to get let down I am crazy, controlling, and out of my mind But you my fine friend are a one of a kind You say that you’re stubborn Just an arrogant ass But since I have known you You’ve done everything I’ve asked You’re an all around good guy That anyone should want To think you’d choose me Is it I that you taunt? I know that I’m not all you deserve And so it’s my heart in which I try to conserve Putting aside how I may feel for you There would be many obstacles for us to go though And I know that one day you will need to be free And that probably means not keeping me But because this is for you not me I will wait around to see If there is a way for, “us,” to be

"I know that you’re too good for me I almost don’t want to wait and see"- Never, my friend, never think like that. This poem was absolutely beautiful...but never degrade yourself...never. If you two are meant to be... it will happen. Believe me. I felt the same way about a guy, took 10 years... but I married him. I married him as soon as I learned I was just as good as he and dropped all insecurity.

You commented on my poem---kindhearted...I do dream of someone like that but doesn't mean I have someone, like that. I strive to be better than I am but I fall short too.
