You look at me and I start to wonder
Why you fell in love with me
You say I am all you want
Yet somehow I disagree
You tell me that I’m beautiful
That my love is all you need
Yet I find myself not enough
My expectations you exceed
I wish I could see through your eyes
And see what you see everyday
Then maybe I wouldn’t disagree
And I could believe the words you say
My heart won’t let me listen
And believe your words are true
I hope you can forgive me
As my flaws I work through

Excellent!
I know these same thoughts go through the minds of everyone who has ever been in love. I can relate personally.
Sometimes, one has to just trust that what one sees and hears is true. If he didn't love you, he wouldn't be there.
This was well written. I wrote a poem on the same subject, but I think yours may be better.
Keep writing.

This is a beautiful poem, even if it has a touch of sadness in it. I enjoyed the rhythm and the easy rhyme.
If truth be told I think most of us are rather insecure when we are in love. How can they see so much in us when we can't see what we feel. Maybe it is because love really is blind, or maybe you just can't see the truth about yourself. Whichever it may be, always remember that he fell in love with you, because he saw in you what he wanted, what he desired and what he hoped for.
Just remember that you are unique in a world of uniqueness. There has never been nor will there ever be another you. So hold your head up and be proud that this man loves you.

Wow love it
I understand this from the guy's perspective because it can be so very hard to convince a woman that she is better than what she percieves herself to be. I have known many women in my life who are wonderful, brilliant people, no matter the relationship i hold to them, whether they be romantic, friend or family. But somehow they never quite believe that I have faith and admiration for all the good things they are. Actually, to be honest, it is a little frustrating at times.

Lovely piece!!!
Most of the time we lose love because we do not see within us or another. But it is there!!
Cheers,
Fay
