My Conscience

MY CONSCIENCE

It troubles me more than occasionally 
It affects me deeply
I feel strongly
I love deeply
I think always of how I affect 
The people around me 
It tires me 
Frequent assessments of my actions
Lumbers me 
Slowing me down
Constraining me 
Making me think before I act 
I fence sit a lot 
The law of unintended consequences
Causes me not to rush 
I pander and question everything
My mind acts as a sentry
Assessing all of my actions
Guiding and controlling me
I don’t feel free
