Mind, heart, body, soul
All wanting one thing
Nothing even close
To the same
Pulling, tearing, ripping
All trying, same strength
Not even close to
The same direction
All saying what
I already know
Painful realizations
No clear-cut conclusion
Must pick a path
And follow it
Live with consequences
To afraid to do so
Not wanting to
Hurt you, …or me
Knowing that if I
Stand middle
Of the road
Long enough, I'm
Going to get hit
