Failure

I'm sitting here without you
Becoming lost in thought
I wonder if you mean this love
If this is truly what you've sought.
I know I can be a let down
And I know I get hard to be around
I know that you'll love me despite that
But in these doubts, I start to drown.
Am I really a failure to you?
Do you mean all those angry words you say?
I'm afraid my inadequacy will end us
I don't want us to turn out that way.
Circles; they ring around me
Words flowing through my mind
I'm afraid if I wait too long to
Confront this
You may decide to leave me behind.
I couldn't live my life without you
It's just as much yours as mine.
I have to find a way to purge these words,
With my heart out on the line.

Now this is a true gem... doubt,confusion and the need for release. The stuff of which life is made

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
