Reciprical

There is no intention of pain,
When I try to understand you,
Just as you hope not to tear at my heart,
With your words, but you do.

And there is no defense because kindness or aggression,
Are received under the same light,
And leave you feeling overwhelmed,
By the world's unforgiving bite.

And Now I must go quickly because the time,
Spent not suffering or pleasing you,
Will surely be repaid with double the pain,
And half of of what I truly do,

Which is try to be alright,
Amidst the odds,
Which is hard to do among the mortar shells,
Launched without a cause.
