Tolerance for a short time

Deliberately written so you don’t know whether the woman or man is speaking - I suppose I am writing for fun.

It is written because I keep feeling that we get indoctrinated with what we should say rather than what we feel.

Who is speaking what and to a person or to themselves

Bodger

You speak to me of honour as our eyes dissolve in a battle of dishonour

Starched you portray in your dress and your feelings of what can not be

Noise as a background to your quite quiet voice

Demanding demands I would meet

When

Over what

Where

You speak to me of loyalty your eyes speak a different message

You speak of me as a stature monumental in belief unbending in desire

You speak in forcing me to tolerate but not to love

And in the closing of a carriage door

Ends meet

You have a very unique style of writing. I know what you mean about saying one thing but body language indicating something else.
