How are we so far apart in this bed? Sleeping with venom in our hearts Tension fills the room when we’re together It’s love and war between us Since when did we become enemies? Fighting on opposite sides Two atomic bombs ready to explode The battle line was drawn when the arguments lingered long after malicious words were spewed Like a gunshot what’s said can’t be taken back The wound stays hidden under layers of resentment Building like mold until it festers over the foundation we’ve made What remains is similar to a war torn country.
