I want you to be mine
I couldn't want you more
I want you to want me back
I only want to be yours
I want so many things.
But mostly I want to be wanted.
The man
Wants
And the woman
Wants
To be wanted
Sometimes he let his eyes rest on hers, it needn't have been painful,
but it strangely was.
He broke a lifetime of avoiding eye contact to show her.
She was worth overcoming obstacles for.

Thank you for breaking me
And making me
A better me

Thank you for hurting me
And making me
A stronger me

Thank you for shooting me
And making me
Bulletproof

Thank you for burning me
And making me
Fireproof
This is an older poem. Things have changed since then. But this poem is highly relative to a lot of people and I liked it well enough so I posted it.
I'm in love
and I'm scared
I'm in love
and I don't know what to do
I'm in love
and the confusion is killing me
I'm in love
I'm in love
I'm in love
****
I'm in love
i dont know if i call you.
i'd sound desperate .
i dont know if i text you,
i'd look shameless.
i dont know if i must tell everything to you,
but what if,i sound clumsy and confused.
i dont know.
anything
absolutely nothing.
you complicate me.
all the time.
wish it could all just be
clear
that i wouldnt mind
writing ,
spilling
all thats inside me
to you.
but its hard.
because i have to
keep in mind
image i make of myself
on you.

i dont know
when i could just be free.
free in front of
you.
i keep saying
i'm only me when i'm with you.
but guess its not true
i do take my steps
cautiously.
i dont know.
why
just why?
I want to see you
I miss you

But i know i can't see you,
Still I know you'd have
Enough self control
Not to kiss me
And yet I'd have every hope
That you woud give away
To control and just let it happen
Because thats where the connection
Truly starts
With a thrilling kiss
One thats comfortable
Yet breathtaking
I know you'd have enough
Self control
To try and push me away
But I'd have every hope
That when I held your hand in mine
You'd slip into the bliss.
