A poem about how complicated love can be, even when it's right

I was so sure that I was right

That it would not matter if

We just waited one more night

Nights turned into days

Days into weeks

I still continued to speak

To convince you to believe

To wait for me

Now I know every moment apart

Was an excuse to close down my heart

Took you for granted from the very start

I just hope it's not too late

My emotions run crazy

When it comes to love I am lazy

Expecting you to read my mind

Know my feelings all the time

Even when I myself don't know

How to let what you mean to me show

It's so easy not to care

Pretend you're not there

When I need to retreat into me

Except you follow into my soul

You have more power than you know

I am afraid to lose control

The walls around my head and heart

You are slowly tearing apart

Sometimes I want to run away

Just wait for you to save the day

To prove yourself to me

Ignoring that love is a two-way street

I am ready to be what you need

The woman you want me to be

I hope you still see in me

The woman who made you believe

In love at first sight

If what you say is right

I am still here

I have been hiding out in fear

Now it feels like spring is near

I am ready to bloom

Not a moment too soon

Time for me to prove to you

That a future with me could be true

If I am over-reacting, I don't care

I need you to know the feelings are there

My heart I am now willing to share

My soul is reaching out to yours

My love, it's you that I adore
