There you go again... singing the same song, different words but the tune remains the same. I forget being this far away just how flawed you are, everything seems brighter from afar. I never noticed the crack in the painting so clearly as I do now. The catch in your voice, the hurried tone, apologetic yet at the same time pleading.
I should perhaps rage, but it would only feed the growing bitterness so I'll let it pass. The grinning court jester by your side goads me to throw my tantrum but she in her funny hat, garish clothes and painted face only fills me with laughter. She should be fed to the lions but for now let her prance and allow her to sing her little ditty in sweet oblivious comfort.
Related by blood, separated by sex. Love from afar, pain in proximity. Unspoken conversation, meaningful looks. Forgiveness without repentance, chances grew lesser. Silent anger, fake laughter. Candid promises, broken lies. Alone in crowds, deafening solitude. Fond absence, suffocating closeness. I am you and you, I. Geminis in fate.
