More Than Me | A Poem

I’m sorry

on my knees

begging please

You shouldn’t suffer

I see the way

your heart bleeds

and your mind

can’t stop moving

because you care too much

They don’t understand

never tried to

My strength isn’t enough

it can’t be

what you need

You’ll stay my hero

the reflection

I want in the mirror

when I wake up every day

I hear your words

don’t always listen

like I should

I realize now

you don’t relax

wish you’d do more than

go to bed

sleep and wake up

I hate feeling sorry

like I owe you

more than me
