They made an underbid
When they said love don't cost a thing
Through thick and thin
My love life has been one best explained
With a grin
With hidden fears
Hoping for a shoulder to lean
I've never been anything close to perfect
But always tried to turn out the best
Among these other trying gents.
I practice to be true
So i never get to pretend
But seriously my true self
Is one you can never get to comprehend.
The thoughts in my head...
The fears, the jitters I've felt
The pains, the regrets
I fear might be the sole reason
If from my path i ever deflect.
So yes i believe I'm a misfit
But loving you has always been
My wish list
Despite my many imperfections
You are my new innovation
A new found escape
Every time my thoughts reset
You are my bliss
As i get stuck in oblivion
You are my fill
Quenching a thirst
I've always wanted to relieve
Be my fate
And I'll live up to thee
Because you my friend
Are the reason
I'm no longer struggling be!
