Seething Cauldron

Voices from deep within, Voices from my recesses, Two worlds in my chambers, War within my members. There’s an interference of thoughts, They also see-saw, I strive to permute them, I stand amid crashing waves. Oh! The billows within me, My belief is tried in a fiery furnace, I'm caught in a web of complexities, I’m shaken vehemently to the foundation. I know who I believe, I know to whom I pledge my allegiance, My hands hold firmly to my shield, To ward off encroaching assailants. August 19, 2022. Inner Conflict Poetry Contest, Unseeking Seeker.
