I have insecurities
That will not leave
Each passing breath
You give your life
To better mine.
My heart sinks deeper
While you jump off
Swimming in depths
To bring me back
To life.
As my head swims with worry
You filter out the pain
Taking it in yourself
So that I can have
A moment of bliss.
Without you, I sink
You risk everything
Love me earnestly
Showing me that
I have a place to fall.
I hope that I do the same
Help you in your need
Our relationship proves
That we never lose
When we are together.
