Unfinished

To say I came out unscathed
Would be a lie
To say I am broken
Would be to deny
The parts of my heart
That love as if it were whole
If I could accredit it to strength
I surely would
But I assure you it's not
It's merely the makeup of my being
I do not know how to be other than this
Someone who gives with everything
Warranted or not
For those I love, my heart is theirs to claim
As pieced together as it may be
When I give you my love
I give you all of me
Even if it is unfinished
