Why?

I don’t get it 
How can I be loved so profoundly? 
I did not earn it 
It’s not that I’m  unlovable
I am passionate 
And caring
But why want me? 
I fumble love 
And don’t give what it is due 
Yet it still pursues me somehow 
I am thankful 
Yet my heart is confused 
Why would someone love me? 
I pretend it’s my due 
When others give it freely
I need it desperately 
But don’t deserve it 
My heart says
Why me?
