I see how you are...

The angst 

in your sigh 

tells a pretty 

compelling story

I meant what I said

even if I screwed up 

the way it spilled out

I see 

how you are

Don't let me 

stop you

but don't 

get me started

Your argument doesn't fly 

with with me

the concepts don't 

hold water

Don't tell me 

where you are 

coming from

I see 

how you are

The light bulbs 

that went off 

have grown 

dim after reflection

Great ideas 

breath life 

into conversation

but action comes 

after it has been written

Down and out

in like Flynn

Coming at it sideways

not sure 

where to begin

I don't see much

but I see 

how you are

Another day 

broken

more hearts 

on the mend

The letters 

will never be opened

read

or saved 

if they are never

written

What were 

you and I 

thinking

I see 

how you are
