It's a little more long winded than I'd usually do and the flows not quite there in bits, but I just kind of wrote the first thing that came in my head rather than changing stuff around.

Ever think things are too good to be true
Think things are to perfect from your point of view
Wonder how things are going so great
At first you think this must be fate

Although it makes me feel uneasy, unsettled and unsure
There’s no way this can be so wonderful and so pure
I sit around and wait, for this all to fall apart
Wait for it to shatter around me, for you to break my heart.

The waiting is unbearable; there are no signs so far
I can’t take this perfection much longer it really is bazaar
This situation is getting out of hand
That’s it I’ve had enough, I’m taking back command

I’ll dig a little deeper; the cracks will begin to show
I just have to search a little harder; I’ll find the flaws I know
I’ll take a little mole hill, and create a giant big mountain
I’ll get my drama and my pain, the days I will be counting

I really don’t understand the distress I put myself through
I just can’t let myself be happy, especially not with you
My heart shall break of its own accord, you just watch and see
My heart will not break because of you; it will break because of me

I loved this. Very hard to write about and you did a great job. It's hard to describe a feeling of too much perfection, so there must be something wrong. Like I said, verygood write. Just watch your rhyming, not to force it too much.

Tell me what you think about being open, about being honest with yourself.

Ever think things are too good to be true
(life is too) perfect from your point of view
Wonder how things are going so great
At first you think this must be (our) fate

Although it makes me feel uneasy, unsettled and unsure
There’s no way this can be  wonderful and so pure
I sit around and wait, for this all to(o) fall apart
Wait for (love) to shatter and for you to break my heart.

The waiting is unbearable; there are no signs (thus) far
Can’t take this perfection much longer, it  is  toobazarre
This situation is (getting out of) spinning out of my hands
That’s it I’ve had enough, I’m taking back command

I’ll dig a little deeper; the cracks will begin to show
I just have to search a little harder; I’ll find the flaws I know
I’ll take a little mole hill, and create a giant big mountain
I’ll get my drama and my pain, the days I will be counting

I really don’t understand the distress I put myself through
I just can’t let myself be happy, especially not with you
My heart shall break of its own accord, you just watch and see
My heart will not break because of you; it will break because of me

This moved swiftly each thought from line to line.Except for some parts the syllable count and rhyming was very good.

i really like this poem
especially:
     My heart shall break of its own accord, you just watch and see
     My heart will not break because of you; it will break because of me
