I Can't

Sometimes, i just can't

Darling are you sure, 

you wouldn't rather have her?

I couldn't be her

even if I tried

I

am all I've got to offer

I can give you every breath I breathe

but I still won't have perfect teeth

I can speak words into your ear that sound so sweet

but I'll never be an athlete

My hair will never fall perfectly,

around my face

My skin will never glow without a blemish

I'm not talented Joshua,

I'm just not,

and I often trip over my own words

The only thing I can do, is love you

I can love you with every last inch of me

I can promise that I'll never give up on you

I can promise to love your flaws

I can kiss your forehead and hold your hand

I don't think you'll find someone who adores you

quite this much

I wish I could be everything you deserve

But I can't

I can't. 

Author's Note

I don't know, sometimes, I just feel like i'm not good enough for my boyfriend.

Regarding your note, we all get this feeling when we get deep in love, but really its not our call, I believe, you are to tell your BF about this and let him decide and feel the truth in his words if he loves you, you arent perfect and so is he :)

I like this, shows alot of heart.

[RachelReaper]

if your love for him is real than your even better than good enough! but this poem was pretty, even the formation of it was pretty

[MissJenaBlair]

Thank you so much!

Jena, if there was such a thing as "perfect" i believe you would be. all of our flaws make us the true definition of perfect. and if he ever believes you're not good enough for him then hes not the one and is a complete idiot.
