I am the One

I.
In love,
I am the One
who is left hanging around
In love,
I am the first to ask
if you are serious enough
In love
I will stay
but left by the ones I love
In love
I can sense
if we're drifting apart
I love
I know, I will know,
if you don't feel the same way 
like you did a day before
In love
I overthink
because assurance is what I seek
In love
I am the first to hurt
because I am last on your list
In love
I am the only one who cries
because who leaves not
still has something left in him
In love
I am the first to trust
I am the first to feel the pain
I am aggressive, an optimist,
a human shelter, your family
But I can become weak, an overthinker, a pessimist, not confident, decisive, doubtful, weak...
weak... weak...

II.
I am the One
I will court you
and earn your love
Tell you words that I feel
and not for moment's sake
I will tell you the truth
of my fears and my doubts
and things that seem to
tear us apart
But nonetheless
I will stay
because I loved you first
before I felt all of this

III.
I am the One
I will tell you the truth
I will stay
I love you
but please do the same for me
