I expect challenges,
I don’t want games.
I expect differences,
I don’t want lies.
I expect miscommunication,
I don’t want silent treatment.
I expect confusion,
I don’t want walls.
I expect conflicts,
I don’t want no resolution.
I expect to be hurt,
I don’t want gaslighting.
I expect limits,
I don’t want excuses.
