No one wants to die alone, my love.
Hold my hand
Through sickness and through health.
But you are just a phantom
In my frightened mind.
My imperfection holds me back
From making you a reality.
I’ve watched too many relationships
Plummet and burn.
I’m afraid I won’t be able do even one thing right,
The most important thing of all,
Keeping the one I love happy enough to stay.

I think this is a fear a lot of us have- I know I personally struggle a lot with trusting new people in my life and opening myself up. It’s scary to be that vulnerable around someone and to let someone in. Really great poem!

Thanks Pooja! I find that hard too. Also I’m always scared of messing up relationships and friendships so it’s hard to connect with people when you think like that! Trying to work on it though!
