“Him and Her”

She gets so sick of crying
He gets so sick of trying

She feels so alone
He can’t come home

She doesn’t know what to do
He almost thought he knew

She sees only lies
He looks in her eyes

She wipes away her tears
He doesn’t know what he fears

She wants to know
He can’t let her go

She doesn’t know what to choose
He knows what he doesn’t want to lose

She is afraid to fall
He wants to stand up tall

She wonders the price to be bound
He seeks what can’t be found

She looks in the mirror
He sees her vigor

Author’s Note:

Well, this isn’t really my greatest poem, but it is something.
