Which One of Us Is Out of Tune

If love speaks the same language why are our words misunderstood? One of us lost a pleasant voice. Was it by chance or by choice? Our singing was always in sync, just like the love we shared, but lately we're out of harmony. One of us is singing off key. We're like a piano out of tune hitting notes that makes us cringe. We might as well both be mute. A truth neither of us can refute.

Well said, Marti, it's better to be mute than be jarring with harsh words:)

This is sad and often what happens in a relationship. Sometimes though silence is good and allows two to come into tune with each other again. Nicely done.
