I push you away because I can’t see how someone like you could love someone like me.

I don’t believe it.

I see my flaws like a neon sign in the dead of the night.

Its an old habit, and like they say old habits die hard.

I push you away because I cant see how someone like you could love someone like me.

I act like I dont care.

It always comes back to me thinking Im not enough.

You left and I cant blame you because I pushed you away the whole time.

I never let you in.

I was always guarded.

I blame myself for not being good enough when in reality I know that I am enough.

I wish I could stop pushing people away every time they got close.

Or I gave them no option but to run.

Everyone has always left.

Im used to leaving.

I know how to deal with leaving because Im good at shutting my heart out.

I dont know how to open up and let the walls Ive built around my heart fall.

Its a bad habit and I havent been able to break it yet.

I pushed you away and I dont think that will stop soon, but Im working on it.
