I don't feel seen Are you noticing What I am going through? Or What's happening to my being? Make space for me Go ahead and tell why I am wrong but don't immediately argue Let me say my piece even if it's with a song Could this be about balance of power? Is everything changing? Is this the hour? I do hear you You are being understood It does not mean I agree I am totally secure with my manhood You be You And I will be me If we both try We can show up authentically Your actions feel performative Sure you are going through the motions But it just does not seem real Are you just playing with my emotions I see that you try to hold space for me Hanging in there and staying present Not immediately making that discomfort disappear Doing all that without starting to resent While you are at it Can you validate my feelings? Do you hear my view? Even if you don't agree he sings Just wait a minute I am still processing this Is it to much to ask For a hug and kiss See You can teach old dogs new tricks I am learning how you think It's real emotional labor I really could use a drink Could this be about balance of power? Is everything changing? Is this the hour?
