Complications

Love poem

Complications

Something that’s unwanted

Repercussions

Causing us to be haunted

Pain is temporary

And love everlasting

I have learned to carry

People who are masking

Their true emotions

Yet I see

All their commotions

Making them un-free

Maybe you’re the same

Maybe you’re unique

Maybe you’ll have fame

Or maybe you’re a freak

Something so simple

Yet so complicated

Leaving a ripple

Within everything fated.

What are you

Who are you

Something that puzzles me

Making me wonder

Why do you have such a fee

Making my words stutter

You’re worth it

You are

My personality doesn’t fit

But you’re my star

Why do I run

When you reassure

I know it’ll be fun

And virtually no pressure

I tend to over complicate things

And that, in turn, makes me lose

When what I want is a ring

And you’re the one I chose

Still, I sweat

My heart pounding

But there’s no threat

And they keep hounding

I know I should ask

And it’s time to stop making excuses

And take the risk

And stop with my mental abuses

I will man up

And break my shell

Smash it with a truck

And play my spell

Pain is temporary

But love is everlasting
