Flaws
I do not understand why you persisted
Broken as I was, pushing you away
I'm done with love, I told you
Grieving, waiting for dissolution
You felt the lie in my words, I think
Waiting, hurt by my constant rejection
Me, trying to save you
You, refusing to leave
'I love you,' you confessed, terrified
My acknowledgement without reciprocation
I cannot, I told you
Terrified that i might be wrong
Hurting, one too many rejections
You disappeared
Me, wondering, worried
Knowing it was what I deserved
Returning, you had a new crush
I was happy for you (no I was not)
An unexpected sadness
Admitting, finally, that I might still feel
I was hurt
(I deserved it)
I was jealous
(I was a fool)
I think I have feelings, I said
You knew
I've been stupid, I sighed
Yes, but I love you, you said
Why
A question i cannot answer
But I love you too
For all my fatal flaws.
