will we ever learn

Today again you hurt my feelings.
Today again you made me sad.
Today again you killed my enthusiasm.
Today again you made me feel bad.

I agree I don’t surrender
I agree I always speak back
I agree I demand my views
I agree my track I never tack

I expect you give me an audience
I expect you give my views a thought
I expect your treat me as a partner
I expect you simply don’t go overwrought

You feel I should be realistic
You feel I should understand
You feel I should agree
You feel I should not demand

Can’t say whether who is correct
Can’t say what is the right path
Can’t say whether this can sustain
Can’t say if we can justify this wrath

Every time we decide to make up
Every time we apologise
Every time we agree to stop this
Every time we decide to go wise

Life again puts us in the whirlpool
Life again gives us two view
Life again makes our thoughts cross
Life again makes us tangle anew

Isn’t it in our hands to untangle together
Isn’t it in our hands to make up our show
Isn’t it in our hands to conquer our temper
Isn’t it in our hands to suppress our ego

Will we ever learn to break this vicious cycle
Will we ever learn that to put an end to this ache
Will we ever learn to make the big change
Will we ever learn that life is Give and take
