Would you still love me if one of my wings were torn and I couldn't fly?

If I opened up to shelter you from rain but the little hole I have from wear and tear let the rain trickle onto your shoulder?

Would you still love me if I still worked and lit the end of your joints, but you had to spark me a few times before I caught my flame?

Would you love me like a poorly rolled joint, where you know you need a fix but each hit irritates you because you find yourself spitting out little granules of bud? A happy inconvenience.

Would you love me like we loved PS2 games that required a few hot breaths and half-hearted prayers before the loading screen appeared and you could finally play the game you wanted so desperately?

Would you still love me knowing I have all these fears and insecurities? Knowing I need your reassurance, always.

Can you love me knowing I'm broken?
