Divided dinner tables, unanswered calls, muted social media feeds, deleted texts from all

Wary first dates, old friends too peace over principles? the thorn is so much larger than the white rose.

Connection despite contradiction. Sometimes it's fun over politics, but often it's goodbye for mental self healing to form.
