My mind and heart are at war
Battling over which reigns
The dialectics of my soul
Deliberate provocation with
Innocent intentions
True meaning lost and forgotten
Concealed by confusion and
Replaced by false motivations
Chronic internal dialogue
Restless debates of the inhuman
Psychic collective
This is their argument:
The ease of remaining in captivity
And conforming to uniformity
Versus
The hardship of keeping individuality
And rebelling against uniformity
My mind and heart are at war
Reasons too complicated to decipher
I am tired but I remain
In the middle of this battle
For I have yet to reach my heaven
Peace of mind
That is my heaven.
