DUO

we needed each other

but you were busy pretending

the sky was always blue;

rocks never fell into the sea.

...

i needed you

but i was left with dreams,

literary devices, and

forums of sweet strangers.

...

you needed me

but you struggled alone,

doors closed, no noise

of pain or discomfort.

...

We need us,

need to share the same sphere

need to share our needs.

...

We don’t need to weep alone.
