can_we_talk
me Without you waiting for a chance to speak... may we communicate? Can I say that we always knew the truth but failed to react because we couldn't put it in words? Or did we fail to succeed because we each expected the other to come through for one another? And now because we couldn't, do we know if it was a lack of support, or worse, something in ourselves notwithstanding? And even now speaking as each other are a whole, should I really say "I"... because how could I know? Our extreme differences could be to blame for our lack of communication. Like when I ask "Is this really what you want to look back on 20 years from now" and your response is that you "just don't think of things that way", when I'm always the one who never expected to live past 28. So I wonder if love songs are created by men who love too easily or if they're inspired by incredible women. Or how you hear that "behind every great man is a great woman", and wonder which one of the 2 are falling short. We can blame each other or we could just talk. But when even communication is lacking... not because of a will to try, but because we just don't understand each other, isn't it way past time to let it go? 120703

arwyn I feel like I'm the one always talking and taking up room and the conversation. I want to hear what you have to say. Your thoughts, your opinions, your dreams, your worries, your fears. Lately, I feel like I don't even know you. I help you practice your counseling skills, but once again, I'm taking up all the space. Why won't you be vulnerable anymore? Was it something I did? Or said? I guarantee you, I didn't mean it. I'm sorry. Please. Talk to me. 190114
