Communication or Lack Of....

Communication,
 difficult to master
The receivers perceptions,
risk creating misconceptions

Awareness,
Not guaranteed
Of  hearing what is said
if by emotions one is lead

Hearing,
Did you grasp the point
listening to interpret
 or simply to correspond

Response,
Ensure the point isn't missed
or the senders feelings dismissed
Unhealthy is, communication defiance

Truth,
Yours or mine
forever sits in between
Growth if all sides are examined

Altercation,
Feelings hurt
Emotional barriers raised
Directs one to disengage

Future
Healthy communication
Is attainable
Mastering the art, critical!
