Maybe that's a glitch
You see
I never saved a life
I never went to battle
I never even stood in front of a hand or a truck or a bullet for someone
All I have done is words and errands and trying and time spent
Learning, Growing, and Doing
Doing far too little sometimes
And there is no way I deserve to hold perfection tight in my arms
And there is no way I deserve for you to love me the way I love you
And still you do
Still you whisper sweet nonsense to me
Still the messages and calls come with all the true red, comical purple, and dark blue secrets from perfection's past
Still you choose me every day when the world and your family must tell you you could do better
Still you tell me you are picky and I am the best thing that could've happened
