I am only a human

I can give you all I have if that would make you do better. I can hold my breath for you if my love would make you stay. I can fake a smile and never give it up if mood swing would create a distance. I can turn the lights on if you promise to hold me in the dark. I can stay forever if you promise never to give up on me. I can give you more till you've had enough if you promise to settle now in the nothing that seems to be around. I can promise you the stars if you promise to shine for me till the end of times.

When war comes, I'll give up to starvation so survival would let you stay if only you'll hold me till my last breath comes up. I'll make men wish they had you and women wish they had me if only you'll make perfections out of my imperfections. Just give me a reason why I should think of heaven when you've been sent to me here on earth. If decisions were to be ours, I would choose you and you alone on this planet we've found ourselves.

But now, I don't think I can give you that anymore. Like a flash came this wave of thoughts. #I_am_only_human I just realized I am only human. The promises I've made to you, the nights that found me smiling at your pictures, the mornings that cleared the thickness of the night that got me consumed in the memories we've created and shared together,
I just realized that #I_am_only_human. I'm not immune to a fall. I'll cry when I fall, I'll crash when I fall, I'll cry when I fall and because I'm human, I'll learn from my mistakes.

#I_am_only_human. This is the biggest strength you'll have to make me stand true to. They are the words that pops up and try to captivate me when I think of you. The very words that reminds me there will be no perfect me and no perfect you. The words that builds me from the broken heart I dread. It's those words that suddenly makes me not lose control of myself and fall apart in the shadow of what I think I feel.

#I_am_only_human. Just right from the start I felt that way but I was negligent of this cry for relevance. It had made me come to terms with that hanging thought that if I make these sullen promises then I might be neck deep in losing myself to this nonexistent promises of mine.

I'll just stop writing this piece, pick my earpiece and listen to Christina Perri because .
