An Alarming Argument

"How could you say that?" 

"The real question is, how could you disagree?"

"I mean, the idea that you would feel any different than I do is practically laughable. This notion you're presenting to me is so untrue it makes me nauseous."

"My friend, I fear you are in the wrong. I on the other hand am in the right. Your opinion is nothing but simply foolish."

A person unaffiliated with the conversation steps into the room. 

"Is that disagreement I'm hearing in here? You know we aim to be a peaceful community no matter what the cost is. If in this case it's that we simply must exile both of you, then that is what we shall do."

    No, not when I 

    saw you

    But when I

    always

    to be 

    near me

    I find myself retelling this story in the quiet of the night, blanketed by darkness. I know I shouldn’t be able to, but somehow the days come back to me in bits and pieces.
