I'm just a regular guy who has more problems than solutions. I'm struggling to get by in my every day life. I'm addicted to the one drug you don't want in your life, I'm so broken inside that I don't know how to even begin mending. I gave my heart and soul to the last person I loved and you saw the left overs. I'm used and abused by everyone because I have no backbone or ability to say no. I put on a smile when I'm crying inside. I love to see you smile because I can see the pain behind your eyes. You have. So much to give to the world and it makes me feel good to know I've helped you out of the shadows. However I fear the day you realize that you don't need me anymore. That there are others who will make you smile and feel alive once our flame has become familiar. I guess I'm scared to lose you once I have given everything I am to you. I'm scared of the day you wake up and realize you don't feel the way you do now. I've been bent as broken so many times that I don't know if I'll make it through another one. Please don't take what I've written wrongly. When I look at you I surprise myself with the warmth that overcomes me. The sensations that flow through me like electricity at your touch. We can spend endless hours together in silence and never have an awkward moment. I'm taken aback by how easily I've let you in and how deeply I can see myself falling or you.
