Misconfigured love
And she asked
Why the break up?
I felt like I was not enough
I could be more
A better boyfriend
Like to love you than ever before
To be one of the best you've loved
But I failed to meet my expectations
Was too afraid, too shy
Too competitive for no reason
So bottled up, rational, insincere
Very much insensitive
Inconsiderate, self-conscious
Way too full of myself
I could not take me anymore
Fantasies started fading
And I gave up
With a room for hope
So I had to get you to
Break up with me
Could it be the dream
Of a different race
Or Immaturity?
But I know for sure
I thought you deserve better
And I failed to be that
About this poem
Break up.
