Tragic Flaw

Folder: 
Lessons Learned

Oh, hero,
How shameful
That this tiny defect
Caused Love’s defeat.

Your preference
For all except the one
Who loved you most
Was your downfall,
The catalyst
For ending our love.

After all,
A relationship
Is not when you
Fit someone where
There are empty spaces
In your life;
It is where you tell others
To move over
And make room for them.
