Confusion surrounds me
Everywhere I turn
My heart says one thing
My mind something else
To which do I listen
How do I tell which are lies
And which is truth
I feel I’m being pulled in opposite directions
I could tear in two
If only I could split myself
Keep one side and lose the other
But I can’t
Is there no hope for me
Both choices are appealing
In their own ways
Consequences are inevitable
Whether good or bad
Forever I’ll stayed trapped
A prisoner of my own feelings
I must choose one
But it’s so hard
One has a halo the other horns
I just can’t see them
Why can’t life be simple
Nothing more than black and white
There are too many shades of grey
More than just right and wrong
I would love to choose both
But that’s an impossibility
Man’s existence was never meant to be this difficult
Why does mine have to
I have to keep doing what I am
And hope time will dissipate all doubt
Confusion will submit to confidence
In doing what I must to survive
This unnatural prison that keeps me
Shackled to unreasonability
This tiny cage that inhibits rationality
Someday I will escape
