Do you see what I see?

I see a smile,
You see a smirk,
I see joy,
You see pride.

You never ask,
I always seek knowledge,
I seldom judge,
Your word is final.

Neither of us like correction,
But we don't detest it.
Our principles are similar,
We just present them differently.

I seek the fountain of love,
You seek the fountain of life.
We say what we need is different.
How can we live without love.

I say 'I need you'
You say 'I love you'
We say we're good together
We're always apart.

Maybe I'm not getting this right,
Maybe it's not you
Maybe it's me
Will it be ever us?

Now I'm confused
You say its very clear, I started all this
Yet you asked the first question
I've never had the final say.

Maybe I'm too quiet
Maybe I never ask
Maybe I never asked
Would it be different if I'd asked?

I believe in talking things over
You prefer sleeping over them, then decide
I prefer agreement from both sides, compromise at worst
We seem to always not agree.

We never fought
Yet there was always a war
No one got hurt
We both felt the pain.

There is a wound showing
I say it's a scar
You say it's definitely a wound
Who hurt who?
