How can I expect
mercy and respect
in the face of such
overwhelming disconnect
🖇❤️🔥🖇
You are me
we became one
I cannot blame you
for what I have become
🖇❤️🔥🖇
We pull and tug
against the strands
like tangled chains
wrapped around a stand
🖇❤️🔥🖇
It’s only once we give up
our prideful pulling
taking our time
reverse the effort, pushing
🖇❤️🔥🖇
When I accept
that you need help
and you give me time
to find myself
🖇❤️🔥🖇
We are unbound
coming together in bliss
this pair stronger
than either ever was
