you have seen my in my most vulnerable state, 

standing in front of you.

my heart exposed to you

and yours to me. 

looking in your eyes

while that moonlight danced in the reflection, 

a symphony of emotion 

monopolized the room.

now you are my greatest weakness. 


what was all consuming became listless

our relationship became everything i was afraid of. 

we fought with intent to hurt; 

the words you said to me kept me up at night 

and the pain you caused me was unbearable. 

now you are my greatest weakness. 


i am not without fault.

this is not a one sided story. 

i yelled back 

my words possibly being more cruel. 

we would make up and wait in limbo for the next fight, 

there was always a next fight. 

now you are my greatest weakness. 


you hurt my heart 

i gave it to you to protect at all costs.

you were my one confidant

and my one conqueror. 

you broke my heart time and time again; 

now my grasp on the concept of love broke and was archived with it. 

now you are my greatest weakness.
