i remember the times you would tell me
how afraid you were
of me changing my mind about you
and leaving you.
“Who could love someone like me?”
And it broke my heart
because I could never pull you close to me,
cup your beautiful face in my hands,
kiss your forehead and look deeper
than anyone has ever dared look
into your honey-soaked eyes and whisper,
“me”
