They say silence is violence,
But it felt the easiest way to avoid yours.
I never knew how deafening the hush was to your ears.
But don’t think that when I’m quiet
That I am not speaking,
In my head I am on a tirade
That won’t stop for days.
See I learned what you did not,
To think before I speak.
It’s just I obsessively overprocess
And lose my opportunity to tell you,
Eloquently,
What’s really going on.

People tend to overthink and overprocess this “love” thing and this thing called “relationship.” Somehow and for some reason, you want the “Perfect” relationship with “Imperfect” people.
Why does your mate have to be “PERFECT” when we are ALL imperfect, even you, including you, especially you?
A relationship does not consist of being “insecure” - Trust
A relationship is not obsession or controlling - Chill
A relationship is not separate this, separate that - Trust
A relationship is not yelling or arguing to get your point across - Chill
A relationship is not phone patrolling through your mate’s phone - Trust
A relationship is not overreacting - Chill
A relationship does not keep secrets - Trust
A relationship is patience - Chill
A relationship is not I, my, or me, but WE, US and OUR and when you both understand THIS, you will have a better, stronger, solid relationship.
Find the areas in your relationship where you need to “Trust and Chill,” and when you do, then Trust and Chill.
