Union of the Soul

How can I be so despairing, when you are so full of joy?
How can I be so laser-like and you are so passively content?
How can I bleed my sorrows and you hide your accomplishments?
Why must I wallow in the mire, when you fly above it all?
I struggle with a word of truth,but you would wither if a lie passed your teeth.
How can I be me and you be you?
It is the union that makes us whole.
Separetely in control of each other.
