Love Poem: Old Habits

Old Habits

You invalidated my feelings
My emotions are real
I feel things you only wish to feel
A relationship isn't a business deal

You say I over think things
Overthinking is a curse
Scrutinize your every move
I think my head may burst

You don't see what I see 
The potential that we have
I need you to see what I see
or it will be distruction at its worst

Old patterns and old behaviours
habits that need to end
my heart truly adores you
But do you can see its worth

We survived another raw moment
Another time, things got real
This isn't a fantasy partnership
We are humans after all

I love you sweetheart
with almost everything I have
Break me, it will be over
I walk to save a piece of myself
