Perhaps you were too faultless to be mine,
A flawless star, too bright to shine,
In the shadowed corners of my heart,
Where flaws and fears never depart.
Perhaps I was too faulty to be yours,
A ship adrift on distant shores,
Anchored by doubts, tethered by pain,
Unable to sail in love’s gentle rain.
But in our fleeting moments shared,
A bond was built, though unprepared,
For love that never stood the test,
Of a faultless heart and a faulty chest.
