Circles

You’ve found your path, your purpose.

You say you’re doing this “for us.”

You say you’e doing this the future.

Whether this is the truth, I don’t know for sure.

I want to feel your sincerity,

Reaching deep within, clawing for some clarity.

Around and around we go around our affairs

Until there’s nothing left to blame but the silent air.

Frustration builds, emotions run wild.

You treat me as though I’m no more than an unruly child.

Insults are daggers, cutting very deep.

Alone in the dark I try to muffle as I weep.

If only we could hear each other from the space between,

Maybe then there would be understanding with what we mean.

If only it were that simple.

But around and around we go, running in different circles.
