I don’t know why I can’t communicate Every conversation feels like a debate I frustrate, you berate. Remember when we were great? Team players, a pair, now to be fair Life has changed us, made us more aware No such thing as black or white But on the shades of grey, we must be right Maybe we’re both scared of being wrong Maybe we’ve been together so long That maybe we’re both singing the same song A discordant harmony, intellects matched Lights our fire, our emotions attached To our inane opinions about the world at large And for a fleeting moment we’re in charge Of our destinies because we now know the “truth” The horrors of worldy impotency now soothed After all, two heads are better than one But with sadness, I’m often overcome Whilst we get to test our presumptions Spar and parry with ideas and assumptions No solutions do we ever find No actions to escape our bind Just an agreement that the world isn’t alright 13/05/[[2022]] #relationships #adulthood
