Anxious-avoidant 

Two elephants danced in perfect sync.

A waltz of shared trauma. Shared Trauma. Dance in T minor

These steps do not belong to us

My elephant took a step forward,

Longing for reassurance

Yours retreated two, maybe three. Engulfment

Swallowed in certainty. Open wounds.

These steps do not belong to us

Love means

Always achieving more. As long as

we remained entangled. Open wounds.

A waltz of shared trauma. Shared Trauma. Dance in T minor

These footsteps do not belong to us

Your elephant knew only backward steps

and subatomic steps forward

The same old steps. Love means

losing yourself. Open wounds.

Happiness required a counter-clockwise move

My rider seeks more. Terrified.

Your elephant exits the dance. Open wounds.

Anger feels unbearable. 100 solar masses and a half.

sitting on my chest. Please stay

Did you ever care? 

Happiness required a counter-clockwise move

These steps do not belong to us.

How many times must we dance

this universal waltz of pain?
