Insecure

I know it was said
with love and affection
and I'm taking it out of context
But it hurts to think
I'm just one of two options
or to think that it's even a contest
I'd much rather be
the beat of your heart
just like a natural reflex
Instead of tearing
your world apart
and making life so complex
I know it was said
with love and affection
I'm just feeling insecure
but I don't want to be
a growing infection
in your life --
when there is no cure
