When business partners drift into unequal roles without discussing it

My business partner and I started this company as equals but over the past year I've been carrying more of the operational load while they focus on the vision stuff and neither of us has acknowledged this shift but I can feel resentment building on both sides. We're making good money but I don't think we're actually partners anymore.
