Me versus You
Love is a thing of beauty
Given unconditionally
with the hope it be treasured
Love is not a weapon
kept in an arsenal
and brought out in time of war
Words are shared delicately
In kindness and in the hope
of reciprocity
Words spoken from a heart
may not be thrown back
in anger
Promises are the view into a future
Shared with another in a
commitment of love
Promises made are to be kept
and cannot be taken back
in spite
My white is your black
The chasm between us filled grey
where we are stuck in muddied indifference
You are beyond my outstretched hand
Pretending you don’t see me
My end is your beginning

You’re welcome
A broken world when it happens. I specially like this part:
My white is your black
The chasm between us filled grey
where we are stuck in muddied indifference
Thank you Grace ☺️
