The argument (early days)
Her side:
It started small, silly thing really.
He keeps leaving his clothes on the floor.
I tell him time and time again to put them in the laundry bin.
It wasn't the clothes that set me off, not really.
It's two humans getting to know eachother,
Knowing eachothers quirks and ins and outs.
I've never known nor lived with a man,
And he never a woman.
I'm emotional, while he's all logic,
It's the logic and facts part that got to me.
I want to feel like I'm heard, that he feels what I feel,
Is that too much to ask?
His side:
You turned away,
I know you're angry with me.
You shouted about clothing,
But I read between the lines,
You're afraid, afraid I don't really see you,
And also if I did, I'd run.
I know you feel like your emotions don't matter to me.
But they do, so much so, I wish to try to fix it,
Whatever is wrong i come at with cold, hard logic.
If there's a problem, there must be a solution.
Your emotions are precious to me,
Even if you don't think I believe they are.
I just need you to trust me, let me in, is that too hard for you?
Them together:
I feel like I'm invisible in your eyes now,
There's a rift there, of misunderstanding.
Of two vastly different people not quite meshing as well as at the first,
Can we truly weather this storm?
