PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Strictly speaking

there is a ‘how’ and a ‘why’

Inadvertently

we have gotten them confused

So that your ‘up’ is my ‘down’

likewise your ‘down’ is my ‘up’

So that we have become polarities

rather than similarities working

towards equal yet different goals

Strictly speaking

there is a 'you' and a 'me'

Inadvertently

we have divided the ‘we’

So that when you add me to you

the effect is a convoluted yearning

So that when I add you to me it

is an idiom of consequences all

spiralling down towards the holes

Strictly speaking

this is now nothing

Inadvertently

we have created desolation

So that any action taken is simply

love mistaken for incompatibility

So that all the meaning found is a

controversial role reversal added

by one or two parts of this whole

Strictly speaking

I am merely speaking

Not being heard
