can do wrong

Nobody is perfect... you hear this over and over again. So, why do so many people expect you to be?

I swallowed my pride, laid down my defenses and came to you - heart in hand and took a leap of faith. Faith that if we were meant to be together that you would see me for who I am. Imperfect, broken, human yet beautiful and caring - completely in love and full of compassion for you. I apologized and explained my inner demons to you, for you to simply say "thanks". Why are the words that come from my mouth not important enough for you to hear? You profess that I am significant and important, so why then do you so carlessly dismiss my intentions? You cannot quiet your brain enough to listen. Without listening you will never truly understand me, the real me and not the me you've made me to be. I am brokenhearted by your indifference but you will never hear me say it even though I am shouting at the top of my lungs.
