Insecure

She says I deserve much better

For the light I've restored

But I won't be a light

If it's not you I'm shining for

There are so many more

You've said before

Won't give them thought

Though you implore

I still adore

You until I'm at Hades door

Or maybe Cupid is devil

Because love brings more hurt than war

I hate the way you talk like you don't think that you're perfect

If you're not perfection

You're its reflection

I still wish for your affection

And I still hear your voice like we're always on the phone

The first angel I've ever seen

Has forgotten she used to call heaven home

Has forgotten how beautiful she has always been

They might have stolen your halo

But I'll bring it back in a dream

I just want you to erase my fears

I just want you to love me by accident

And not because of the words on the piece of paper you hold near

I just want to believe you could hold me dear

I just want you to be tangible

And no longer a dream that can just disappear

You say my smile weird

But it's hard to smile when all you feel is fear

I know we wouldn't work but I still want your touch

And when you pushed me away

It hurt so much

Could have begged you stay

But I was acting okay and tough

So the light finally dimmed

And my hearts door was shut

I love the story in the poetry.
"I just want you to erase my fears
I just want you to love me by accident
And not because of the words on the piece of paper you hold near
I just want to believe you could hold me dear
I just want you to be tangible"
The above lines could stand alone. I believe we can twist-up the emotion of love. Thank you my friend for sharing the amazing poetry.
