We’re One in the Same

Two minds one body. 

I feel I’ll go mad if I fight you,

You fight till you think you’ve won. 

 

Two minds, One Body. 

I love you and you love me. 

You fear me, and think I watch with glee

You fear insanity, but sane is something you may never be. 

 

I love and You love me. 

Yet you’ve turned my soul to stone. 

I RUN from your glee,

You’ll leave me to die alone. 

 

YOU turned MY soul to stone. 

Or maybe WE turned A soul to stone. 

We tracked one down,

Tried to TAKE it down. 

 

MAYBE we turned a soul to stone. 

But whose? My own?

OUR own? I think not. 

A soul is something we do NOT have. 

 

Whose? YOUR own?!

How about OURS?

You broke me as much as I broke you,

You ABUSED me and I came back FOR YOU!

 

How about ours?

Two souls, One Body. 

We each have our own souls,

Can yours not bare to be lonely?
