Somehow love became a testimony of truth or fiction 

We accuse and both too defensive 

The proof in friction 

That pollutes our vision 

What ensues are new bruised decisions 

Love takes two but who’s forgettin

The smallest things lose attention 

So I wonder if still saying “I love you” will loosen tension
