why does love suck
what if i'm in love with the idea of you
the person I envisioned in my head,
the one I created scenarios about?
what if you are the complete opposite?
and i go in head first
carrying my ruptured heart.
But the way I feel about you is transparent
the old conversations I recall
the nights speaking thinking of you
the way my soul was created to fit yours,
I hate that i'm frightened
but i want to be wary.
