Understanding Each Other

Everybody keeps telling me to move
On but darling, the problem is that I
Cannot do that. People can disapprove

All they want to, but they do not cry
And feel like I do. They do not know
That you are in my corner and my ally

In this mess of life. You are the foe
And enemy in their eyes, but you are
Not the bad guy. This is not their show.

The truth is that I see and feel every scar.
I feel the sunlight streaming in through
The cracks. I can no longer watch from afar

Anymore. You say that nobody gets you
Because you are too weird and complicated,
But you should know by now that I pursue

Mystery. Darling, some people have waited
Their whole lives to find someone whose
Soul they connect with. It cannot be translated

Into a language of understanding. Your bruise
And pain is something I understand too well.
We are like interwoven stories and tattoos.

Darling, we never like to linger or dwell
On the past because some people simply
Do not comprehend it. We are back from hell.
