Opposite Ends

We're just opposite ends but even at the sight of you,
Eyes blur,
images mix,
words scatter

At the sound of you,
I see,
hear,
know nothing else

You occupy every thought in those few seconds
Temporarily on hyper speed mentality
Yet when i think back my mind is remarkably empty
...remembering nothing

Yearning to see you; to talk to you
Even though there's nothing left to say
Then hating myself for even wishing it
As if it makes me a traitor to women or the person I am supposed to be now
to pretend,
to be unconcerned,
...to be indifferent

But actually thats the problem isnt it?
to proud to solve it,
to stubborn to forget
So instead it is left unsettled,
and hovers above us both like dust in this thick air
to overly proud and stubborn to budge,
neither of us willing to give an inch,
both content yet tormented to leave it this way,
staring at each other from our respective sides,
but accepting that now this is the way we will always be
...on opposite ends
