choose me

sometimes I lay awake in bed and I stare up at my ceiling in the darkness and ask myself "am I worthy of love?" because if I was worth keeping I'd still be yours that truth is like a pill that tastes to bitter to swallow I choke on that truth every time refusing to believe that you and I are not a perfect match we answer at the same time with the same answers almost like our minds are connected so why is it so hard to be with me I mean as in together you say you love me and I know it's true you've got stuff going on in your life but so do I why not handle it together you hate being alone just as much as I hate not being around you your presence is an essential part of my life when you left back home that day I was lost I had no clue what to do with myself I couldn't even sit still couldn't stop eating you are like my other half I know I can live and exist without you but I'd rather have you here completing me I am half of a whole without you I'm half here and I can do it I can live and move on but I've done it and having you here in front of me spending time with me I realize no matter who else I'm with no one will ever make me feel the way you do no one will ever mean as much as you do no one will be worth tolerating I've been there since day one don't make an unnecessary mistake give it time but choose to be with me if you really love me like you say like I believe then you'll choose me I believe you'll choose me
