Paranoia

Never love a paranoid one, because he won't be able to sleep peacefully until he's sure you've reached home safe 
Never love a paranoid one, because he'll want to get into the good books of your father, and be friends with your mother
Never love a paranoid one because he will count the seconds you've been gone, and will know in a heartbeat if your attention has been divided
Never love a paranoid one because he won't believe you when you say 'I love you' for the first three times
Never love a paranoid one because he'll worry you suppress a cringe the first time you hold him
Never love a paranoid one because he'll get frustrated if he stutters while reading you excerpts from your favourite books
Never love a paranoid one because he will spend hours finding a recipe he knows you will like, and then laugh at what he baked because he's afraid you'll be disappointed
Never love a paranoid one because he will want you wholly, even all the hurt and shame you've neatly tucked away under your bed
Never love a paranoid one because he won't be able to sleep at night from thinking too much
Never love a paranoid one because he will wake up sweating in the middle of night knowing I fell asleep on unfinished matters
Never love a paranoid one because he will never quite fathom why he means enough to you to stay
