When I thought about this piece, I was thinking about how sometimes we say something when we actually mean something else. A common example is when we say we're ok, when we're really not but we don't want to talk about it. I wanted to write a poem that showed how we can have an entire conversation that should mean one thing, when there's actually a different meaning to everything, which gives a completely different feeling. If you read the regular text on both sides, it sounds like a caring couple that's agreeing to move on from something. However, if you read the italicized text, it's a different story with a different mood. The conflicting meanings are meant to show how there is a lack of meaningful communication and a darker mood.
