You and Me

You and Me

A Poem by Scarlett Dale

I don’t want to cause you pain, I don’t want you to hate me. But can’t you see how you’re hurting me too? Around in circles we go again; one blow after another �" both of us walking on the broken glass, afraid to know what might happen. I hurt you, you hurt me; is this how we must live? Tell me no. I don’t want to cause you hurt, I don’t want you to see in me the disappointment you feel. But can’t you see how you’re hurting me too? Love is a mutual here, there’s no doubt. But do you really know what this is all about? I hurt you, you hurt me; do we really need to do this again? Please say no. The pain I feel, is the same you have �" do you really think I don’t know you feel it too? We’re one in the same me and you. But we’re different too; don’t you see our faces in the mirror. So alike but never the same. I don’t want to cause you suffering; I don’t want you to turn your back on me. But can’t you see how you’re hurting me too?  We can ease this pain if we only listen; can you listen? Do you really know what this is all about? I hurt you, you hurt me; will it ever stop? Please tell me yes. The hurt, the pain, the suffering �" I want it to end. Can’t you see? Can’t you see what we’re doing? Doing, to you and me.
