Galaxies Apart

Hurting you wasn't my intention
For me to keep sanity
My spirit halted me with an intervention

You're a shot in the dark
Our minds are galaxies apart

Too much conflict
While I disliked it,
You seem to be an addict

I'm more content
Finding less and less to vent

My battles are fought by me
Your battles are an Odyssey 
Clash of the Titans, Greek mythology

Too much drama for me
I'll retreat while you cry to your momma
Hopefully peace and happiness find you tomorrow

You are enlightened on many levels. Sometimes you just have to wait for others to catch up, but definitely no need waiting for those headed in another direction. Nice work.

In love, battles should be for each other. Not against. I dig this. Excellent work!

Awesome portrayal of separation of two people's connection! I liked this one very much. Maybe you would give me the honor of reading some of my own with some feedback? Keep up the great work! -Yours Truly
