How can we speak?
If to speak is to entice?
Hatred in one another,
Painfully amassed?
We torture eachother,
Unwillingly so,
Until we wallow in hatred,
Observing one-another’s throes.
These things that lie between us,
We cannot address
Without causing eachother
Insurmountable duress
I love you so dearly
And yet am hated in kind
For that which you love me
Bypassing in line.
Forgive me my darling
For causing you pain
But please know in turn
My mind is not lame
I see that which happens
Between us in turns
I am not ignorant, blind, nor unlearnt
I am not unfeeling, drunk, nor inert.
We both struggle inwards
With feelings of loss
We both are alone
When our minds do acost
Please love me my darling
My means aren’t to offend
Forgive me my darling
And let us make amends
