A Couple's Resolution

So, we promised, didn't we?

Talk it out…

Didn't it seem easy at the time?

But here comes a shout…

I promised!

You lied…

There, now you're angry.

You haven't even tried.

Yell back at me, again.

Feel the heat…

Raise your voice again,

And you're out on the street.

Don't you dare,

Point your finger at me.

I'm not the blind one here,

If you could only see.

This twisting,

Turning,

It's the same old,

Burning.

You scorch me,

I'll fry you.

What happens now?

What did we do?

Silence,

It's deafening.

Tears in my eyes,

They're threatening.

Please,

How do we apologize?

Can we make it through?

…How many tries?

What will it take,

To break away?

Can we stand,

Another day?

I know,

Our battles are long.

But you know,

It's what makes us strong.

You know,

I can see through.

And I know,

I can't survive without you.
