two fish in water

i won't lie and say we haven't been like two fish swimming circles in our fish bowl one night ago on the eve of our anniversary we sat in silence and ate sushi and all i could think was - how distant i felt from you despite our legs touching underneath the table. how can this be, when we've been swimming circles in our fish bowl? it's been two months since the betrayal and i won't lie and say we haven't been like two fish swimming in two different oceans in two different parts of the world. things are not the same like they used to be - but i have some hope that we will stop swimming circles soon.
