I gave my heart
To the only one who could break it
Luckily, he didn’t
But that made it all the more breakable
Tested every part of him
Until I was left wondering why he succeeded
To be so very perfect
Some natural flaws is what I thought he needed
But behind my tricked, foggy eyes
His flaws were shown too often
And as I continued to not see them
My heart began to soften
Until one day he couldn’t take it anymore
Had to tell me the truth before I was torn
Blurted out everything from head to toe
Told me everything that I did not know
With his last, dripping word
A small chip was made with all the facts
And the chip grew larger and larger
Until my heart had fully cracked
I expected to go into denial
Instead, I found myself to believe him
These are the flaws I finally found
What surprised me was that I could not leave him
He tried to explain but I dared not listen
I just needed a breather as my eyes glistened
I would expect to think I did not know him
But I know him all too well
And I know, deep down, he didn’t mean it
And I’m glad that he had to tell
The more human he seemed in my eyes
Trampled the significance in his lies
But through it all, I trusted him from the start
And even when he broke my heart
I loved him
Yes, I loved him
I will continue to love him despite everything
Try to forget him, but I can’t
I will forgive him because he is only human
And that is all I am
