Conflicted i am
Throughout my life
I remain in the same conundrum
Waging my wars behind my face
And inside my own mind
Smiling, laughing as though
Nothing ever bothers me

Conflicted in my mind
In my soul and right down
To the fiber of my being
Drowned in this world of ours
Forever trying to reach the surface

I yearn for peace and compromise
But deep down i want violence and pain
The case always goes vice versa
I am a mirror reflecting
Whatever is put before me
I hope to love and be loved

But i know that love and hope are irrational
Why do i feel this way, why do i think like this?
Do i embrace this feeling, this thought?
If i do, will i become a better version of myself
Able to face my demons and being victorious
Or will i become submissive to that nature

Letting it swallow me into its dark abyss
I remain conflicted, forever finding answers
To my destructive and peaceful state of mind
So divided is my mind so very dispersed
Only finding links to tackle my immediate troubles
Never putting together my mind
To face my real enemy, which is myself.
