Fatal Flaws

A fatal flaw is something That is part of personality. It's something that eventually Destroys a person ultimately. Everybody has A fatal flaw. For some it is freedom, For others it's the law. For some it is Their darkest fears, Like heights or growing old And outnumbering friends in years. Many men and women Do not know the thing That is their fatal flaw Which will, to them, destruction bring; Destruction that May be physical, Or just as well Might be emotional. Physical destruction Is things like broken bones and death; Emotional destruction Is things like breathing Eternal Sorrow's breath. Unlike most others, I know my fatal flaw. It isntpride or pain, And isnt grudges or even problems with the law. My fatal flaw is not Common amoung those of villainy. My fatal flaw Is personal loyalty. Which means I would sacrifice Anything to save a friend, Even if it would mean I would have to meet my end.
