my love is not like your love at all
your love is
undivided
generous
undemanding
you never hold back
and you don't expect anything from me
while
my love is
small perfectly placed portions
constraining myself within invisible borders
and demand a return
and whilst I unwittingly hold back
I wish, I wish I could be like you
for you deserve so much, so much
but I am so afraid
of losing myself
in the love I have for you
for it is far stronger than me
and much more generous than me
and it is far, far more worthy than me
so please
don't let me go
but try to see my heart
nestled in this concrete of my self
and one day I am sure
it will wither and give back
a thousandfold
what you deserve
