The cost to be the boss

The battles in war between a man and wife
Are always born by a personal pain inside
Each of them has pave this way
The words of personal pain only will they say
This should be a union but they cannot see
His heart + her heart equal their heart that makes three
In their heart together, this battle must end
Because the word I has not a friends
His heart and her heart will press on with the fight
As if each other chose that, their love has no rights
The next stage of the battle in their mind
Are the most hurtful things that words can find?
Tell me what is the cost
As you say things of hurt just to be the boss
As the boss, you will have to pay
Because that third heart had no voice to say
