the truth is one
completes the other
though it can be
easy to lose track
sometimes it feels like
that song skinny love
just trying to last
through the fragile eras
the moments slipping
by untouched and
unnoticed, unable
to be retrieved
taken for granted
slighted or aggrieved
no one ever as perfect
as the other needs
both just trying to
live those best lives
day by day
always reaching for
the stars, not often
left disappointed
but once in a while
a bit scraped up
metaphorically bruised
goodbyes and regrets
hellos and promises
enduring, enriching
fighting for that
individual voice
but also striving
to mesh as well
passport stamps
strawberries & cream
living united
living free
