Inner Conflict I

For Unseeker Seeker 
Inner Conflict 
Poetry Contest
13 / August / 2022

I instantaneously after reading this
thought this one has got my name 
all over it and is just for mr

The best and only possible way I could
try to explain how my inner conflict
manifests itself to me is this

Imagine if you will my life as a out of
control runaway train with no driver
at the helm about to crash 

Then I am the only passenger sat on
the roof in the best seat in the house
with a totally unobscured view strapped 
firmly in

So I get a bird's eye view of the disaster
that is about to enfold

And all I can do is hope and pray it
comes quickly and puts an end to
the endless swirling butterflies and
sleepless night's

Of the conflict I toil with most of all
the possible damage I may be doing
and am inadvertently placing on other's

Wishing willing wanting only to help me
yet cannot help or are no help at all
