Divided

An agony in a restless mind

Flowing, in vain ... heat in veins

A ruthless tension tearing up exhausted nerves

and, In faded eyes,

warm tears fighting for freedom

Blooming, Yet, on the mouth an out of context smile.



An innocent human beneath the stress of conflicting choices

Moving a head, there are pros and cons

Backing off, there are credits and dues



One pulse drives him forward

and another pulls him back

His inside is completely burning

but the mouth liberates no smoke.



He then disintegrates

Until one force dominates

Casting him outside ... the thinking cell

Where he would loathly fill

A missing link in a chain reaction

Transferring him, after being processed,

to a fresh puzzling instant

As a human in irreversible circulation.

Nothing put the mind to test like ambivalence!

Well written, Poet!

Kindest Regards.
