Margarita Lillico Poet Rhyme

As Is

I fell in love with her because,
She loved me without any clause -
"As is"- it seemed and so I hoped,
So I proposed and we eloped.

But things soon changed, "Who could have thought, 
I was so very gravely flawed?!"
To change me was her life long shot 
Into a man that I am not.

Puzzled, I analyzed a bit,
And figured - something didn't fit.
Person in question therefore is:
Who I have fallen in love with?

Or maybe there is a slight chance,
If changes she, for a romance?
And then, if she does truly try
As a kind gesture so will I.
