Just a proposal...

I am self-centered
As many said
And as many wants to say
I love myself
More than anything in the world
And I know,
I am not wrong on this

You were not there
To hold me when I cried for the first time
You were not there
To feed me when I was hungry
I definitely didn't mumble your name
When I started to speak

You were not there
To give me hope
When I was struggling
Tired, Helpless, Alone,
I cried my tears in the dark
And of course you were not there
Nor I was with you

Therefore,
My dearest
You may not understand me
As I may not understand you
Because you are not me
And I am not you

But,
The time is still here
The chances are still here
What do you say?
If I tell you
I want to be with you
I want to understand you

Simple, explicit and emotive with a positive note towards the end.
