Contradicting expressions of that same emotion...
-
She wanted to submit…lose herself in him,
Surrender her rudder to his valiant will…
Mould herself to his desires,
Confine herself to tendering for him.
For was it not in his happiness that her joys lay…
Yet he was not happy…
He wanted her by his side,
Complementing partners hand-in-hand,
Together, fighting the world, changing it…
In her independence, her freedom;
In her assertion of her own free will,
He found his love, his affection, his joy…
And I silently wondered from a distance,
At the contradicting expressions of that same emotion…
She wanted to submit…lose herself in him,
Surrender her rudder to his valiant will…
Mould herself to his desires,
Confine herself to tendering for him.
For was it not in his happiness that her joys lay…
Yet he was not happy…
He wanted her by his side,
Complementing partners hand-in-hand,
Together, fighting the world, changing it…
In her independence, her freedom;
In her assertion of her own free will,
He found his love, his affection, his joy…
And I silently wondered from a distance,
At the contradicting expressions of that same emotion…
