Don't Look At Me

"Look at me when I tell you I love you," you say
but I can't
because I'm scared you'll change your mind if you see the real me
the eyes reveal everything

Like how insecure I am about life,
myself,
and what I have to give

"You're too good for me," I say, my stare focused on the floor

then you lift my head up by the chin
and scream:

"I want to kill the man that killed the man you used to be. He has ruined everything."
