A Rift, deep in the Soul
A conflict has arisen, it must be addressed

I have been divided,
Split in two.
My motives differentiated.
I have been confused.
What a part of me demands,
The other detests.
Provide for one’s needs,
And the other protests.
The two separately are incomplete,
Alone, they shall rot and perish.
Now, they seek to compete,
For their own exigencies, selfish.
Both parties step into the battlefield,
One must choose a side.
Quick, now, take your pick.
You have been left no time to decide.
I am forced to commit to a half,
To leave my heart for my head.
I shall become a fool, dumb and daft.
The present is miserable, the future what I dread.
