He finds her too pragmatic, she thinks he’s a dreamer
He seeks solitude, she craves social ties
He shuns alcohol, she cherishes her drink
He is the master of words and the king of tact. She could adopt tactless for a middle name
He exudes calm. She’s forever hyper
He commands his temper. She’s a slave to her anger
He loves sun, she loves shade
He prefers indoors, she thrives on the outdoors
He stares you down when angry, she bites off your head
He wants to be tied down, she wishes to soar in the wide open skies
He writes for himself, she writes to share with the world
He meditates his troubles away, she broods till her head hurts
He desires her secretly, she fawns over him openly
Two lives, one love
In their different ways they pay for their choices
In their different styles they fight their different demons
hmmm...

RV and nowheregirl,
ReplyDeletei guess we all women ARE really alike. Or maybe since there are only 2 and a half worthy men in the world, we're in love with the same guy (shudder!!!)
Now imagine that! :) But thanks for stopping by, after a very long time
