Insecurities

I fear the times when my insecurities take over 
I wonder if the time will come when you no longer want me
I know what you think of me
I know how much you love me

but, can I ever really KNOW

I'm afraid of my insecurities
I'm afraid of not being perfect in your eyes
I ponder a time when you look at me and realize I'm no longer what you want,
what you need

I'm sometimes overpowered by my insecurities
Even though I know how much I mean to you,
I wonder if you'll find someone greater
I know you realize no one can replace what we share

I will still forever be afraid of losing you

I don't want you to look at someone else and even for an instant
wonder what it would be like to be with her
I don't want you to look at someone else and think how completely gorgeous she is
and that I don't look as good to you

I don't usually let my insecurities get the best of me
I generally have great self-esteem
but, I'm terrified of my insecurities 
and I'm terrified of not being the one you want forever
