Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than hands?<br /> <br /> -Ernest Gaines.

It seemed so simple
Yet turned out so hard
To write my own story.

I won't pretend to know
What you said about me
Because truths only hurt.

The song of love we sing
Is only a lie
That's half yours and half mine.

You blinded me
With your life
That you claimed to be.

And we kiss each other
One last time
As we say goodbye...at last
