"still Confounded"

Understanding that a period of anger and rage need to be had, to allow her to vent her emotions and then regain her sense of self and reality. But is a prolonged period needed? Is such a permitted tenure being abused? Not wanting to give in I remain in a sense of unbudging callousness. Only such a state will empower me agains the abuse of her warranted anger. Why can we no longer be amorists? Why have we been conformed to have no dialogue between us? No normality of such a relationship has existed for some time. Not since this relationship has been cultivated, have we experienced the socially acceptable union...or even that had among our peers and elders. Partly due to my lack of experiecne and damaged conscious, many of our problems can be charged to me. But why, when something better is desired, is there no coupled effort? Nothing sought after on her part? Perplexed, I seek to dig within myself to alter my ways. But still she does not appreciate any change. She continues to have her magnifying glass over my head, only examining my shortcomings. Perturbed...Confounded I remain.
