When the silences grow stone cold
And you don't fill in the gaps in conversation -
When I can't bring myself to change the subject
But we both know it has to be done -
When I can't find words,
For once in my life,
When I am out of things to tell you because I have told you everything.
Is this how it's supposed to be?
What now?
Everybody hates mirrors.
Anything reflective.
Anything that shows you who you are -
we will never be enough to appease ourselves.
I miss when I could go into a public restroom
and wash my hands
Universal languages are -
something you understand without speaking.
How you connect with people of
different.
Cultures, places, traditions.
How you love people who are not the same as you.
I wasn’t
Sure.
Not one hundred percent.
I knew I wanted it
But I wasn’t prepared last time
We weren’t ready last time
I’m surprised I was ready this time.
But I was -
We were.
