What do you mean you were desperate, was I really your only option? If we had met today you said you wouldn't have wanted me.
Maybe I misheard and you just awoke misguided anxieties from my past. Making me think I should've listened to my instincts for once: I *wasn't* good enough for you - I *am* a fraud and don't deserve you
Maybe I misheard and you did always love me. Then my self worth would be intact, because it can't exist without you protecting it.
But maybe I heard you well and clear, I am just an old dog you've grown too attached to get rid of. And that scares me so fucking much
