I WONDER….what happened to PERSUADING me and NOT INTIMIDATING me?

We were friends…brothers and sisters, you might say
Always getting along and sharing everything we had between us
All the dreams and aspirations we spoke about, growing up

The love and respect
All is gone now
All because of that different voice you use to rise at me, when speaking to me

I agree we disagreed
But couldn’t find an amicable way of us agreeing to disagree
…without having to intimidate me

I see you’re after my life now
Sending me all these death threats
And the booby-traps you keep on setting for me, to fall right into

As it stands now, we are past the stage of reconciliation
And making amends for the damage done
Probably because of the scars, seen and unseen that you’ve left on my body

It’s no wonder that I look around me and all I see, is lifelessness
From all these displays of aggression and intimidation…

Then, I WONDER….WHAT HAPPENED TO persuading me AND NOT threatening me?
