You and Me

by Meena Krish

My stubbornness
and
your persistence
don't seem to agree
though there are moments
it creates an unforgettable breeze
which plays until the
night flees,

Your constant preaching
and
my silence
clash upon the walls
I build with fire yet
there are times my guard falls
prey to your embrace
of summer calls,

Your wisdom
and
my seasons
a concoction no one believes
nevertheless we
face every adversary
that wedges between
you and me

Your autumn
and my winter
can hit rock bottom
with little solution in sight
but from this friction
battles are forgotten
when roses clash
and white rain blossoms...
